  • "FEMINISM IS A GREAT GENERATOR OF DIVORCE:"no truer statemnt c/be said but then I ask: Doesn't that stmt say or infer that if we take away women's civil rights even human rights, marriages w/be better; divorce w/be lwr? We have data fr. around the world that tells us clearly that if we do any thing diff. it s/be to redefine what marriage is. Women around the world have no employment, no rights, are married off as early as 5, 9,15yrs old; they are married for life to one man--NO DIVORCES!!.--MO

  • I'm a veteran (31-year) family therapist. Michelle doesn't incude consideration of a primary cause of many (most?) divorces: significant unacknowledged psychological wounds from early-childhood trauma. Without assessing for these wounds and intentionally reducing them, mates will remain miserable - together OR divorced. See sfhelp.org/relate/qa/divorce.h­tm

  • Divorce is for pussies!!Obey the vows you took!!!

  • Feminism is a great generator of divorce. Divorces have increased since it came on the scene. Any Idealogy that somehow divides & separeates the sexes is bound to cause social sickness. It makes it seem that men are the cause of all the problems. It's very discriminatory which gives rise to mutual discrimination. The natural state is that men & women have mutually enhancing differences.
