  • Because of womens lib. Woem are not prepared to put up with unhappy marriages anymmore it is as simple as that,

  • @mkeen61267 - we shouldn't assume that this is the only factor; divorce rates vary from country to country even when assuming equal levels of liberation. Divorce rates in Denmark are significantly lower than in the US. The different ways that feminism has panned out in different countries are important - in some countries it has supported the family in others it has encouraged individuality.

    We also have to consider other factors such as secularisation & inequality.
