I blame the women AND men.

There are ways to slow a divorce initiated by a woman, if the husband WANTS to do so.

Divorce is THE most destructive element to the family and society….more than the gays, more than Ukraine, more than

The progressive era and the advent of socialism brought on by the Depression got that started. Marriage became disposable…it is reversible, it can be undone. It’s caustic to women, and quoth Marx and Engels, “(t)he bourgeois sees his wife as a mere instrument of production. He hears that the instruments of production are to be exploited in common, and, naturally, can come to no other conclusion than that the lot of being common to all will likewise fall to the women.”

We need to get people into a pre-1934 marriage mindset. From there, children can grow up in a home that isn’t lead by hypocrites, where religion is seen as VITAL as opposed to a buffet where they can pick and choose morality.

A system that rewards one gender for behaving badly and not holding their end of the contract.

It appeared that we did better without marriage licenses before 1934.

It's always a bad thing once the government gets involved in something.

I blame the women AND men.

How about the state and federal government which subsidizes and encourages divorce?

Denying welfare bennies to single moms would cut the number of divorces by the millions.

But that would lead to healthy happy families and a more prosperous nation. Can't have that, now can we?

70% of Divorces Initiated by Women

Women marry men thinking they'll change.

Men marry women thinking they won't.

Perhaps slow it down but not prevent it; it used to be a man's sin but now women have increased it so that society is becoming increasingly wicked until there is no remedy.

Jeremiah 17:9
The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?


Malachi 2:
[13] And this have ye done again, covering the altar of the LORD with tears, with weeping, and with crying out, insomuch that he regardeth not the offering any more, or receiveth it with good will at your hand.
[14] Yet ye say, Wherefore? Because the LORD hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously: yet is she thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant.
[15] And did not he make one? Yet had he the residue of the spirit. And wherefore one? That he might seek a godly seed. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth.
[16] For the LORD, the God of Israel, saith that he hateth putting away: for one covereth violence with his garment, saith the LORD of hosts: therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not treacherously.

[Mark17]

In my family, it’s 50/50. Half the time they were initiated by the women, and the other half, initiated by the men.

From the graph you posted, it looks like the gap between the rate of marriage and divorce really began to narrow in the sixties and has continued to narrow since then.

On May 9, 1960, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approves the world’s first commercially produced birth-control pill.

Development of “the pill,” as it became popularly known, was initially commissioned by birth-control pioneer Margaret Sanger and funded by heiress Katherine McCormick.

By 1980 the ratio became one divorce for every two marriages.

In my circles, there are remarkably few divorces I only know of two among our friends. Maybe because we’re Christian’s and take our vows seriously.

One brother in law is divorced. She was truly psycho. He tried for years and finally had to initiate.

[BarbM]

Being never married, I can assure you that there is great pressure for a woman to get married. So, some women will get desperate and marry the next poor sap who will marry her.

After I turned 40 people stopped asking me when I was going to marry. At age 64, now I am ready. I'm looking for a Catholic man. Available to marry in the Church. He must be intelligent and not too hairy.

I was the scapegoat of my family. Constant criticism and gas-lighting. I was trapped. Broken. Mocked.
They died or scattered, so now I am looking up and around and see beauty and that I deserve to be loved.

NO, there are NOT ways to slow a divorce.

And how many women initiate divorce because he couldn’t keep his pants zipped?

"The family is a small nation, and the more we have of these tiny nations functioning properly and refusing to break apart, the more we as a large nation are able to resist tyranny, government overreach, and other breaches of our freedom."

[Beowulf9]

Anybody here remember when All in the family kind of encouraged divorce. And then came Maude? Stuff like that crap encouraging women to hate men, ‘be independent’ what has that got them but to work a long hard work week and the kids are on their own.

Well some might think it’s a long time ago but that set the tone for what we have now.
