Oh really? Why is a woman who believes in the radical notion that women are people too, and deserve the same rights and considerations as the other half of the human population, in other words a feminist, automatically considered a lesbian? Every feminist I know, including myself, is either married or involved in a relationship. I'm a 38-year-old never-married single parent, and people think that because I'm not married at my age that I'm a lesbian. Well, maybe it's because most men aren't interested in single parents even if they have college degrees and can hold their own intellectually and financially. And why are other people's marriages the business of everyone else, anyway? It's no one's business but their own.

I'm sure that idea of "feminism" is not what the poster had in mind when he/she mentioned it as a factor in this country's position as the world's divorce leader. If you look at the organizations that are considered mainsteam "feminist" organizations these days (NOW, for example), you will find that their membership is comprised of a disproportionate number of lesbians.
