When a feminist gets divorced what is expected?

Several times I've read comments from women who claim to be feminists and want to be equal to men.

I don't feel sorry for men but sometimes I have to wonder.
My question: If a feminist gets divorced and earns a higher income than her ex, who should pay allowance? shouldn't it be the feminist?
or is there selective feminism?
meant alimony not allowance

It would be the person who doesn't need it as much. This would be true for all divorcing spouses. On the other hand, I haven't seen many feminists support alimony for anyone but those who are in dire need of money.
