One of the key factors in calculating support has to do with the incomes of the parties. If the incomes and employment benefits are truly the same, then a dollar amount may not be paid. However in long term marriages, spouses may elect to reserve their right to ask for support in the future if a need arises.

It has nothing to do with the sex of the parties.
