You seriously don't know whether or not the divorce laws are unfair? Allrighty, I assure you, the laws are unfair. Also, the divorce rate is 50%. These are facts.

Since those are the facts, who in their right mind would enter into something in which there is a 50-50 chance of their lives being destroyed?

Flip a coin, heads you win, tails you've lost everything.

Should a person buy a car in which there is a definate 50% probability that the transmission will fail? Would you?

Should a person invest in a stock in which there is a 50% chance they'll lose all of their money? Would you?

I can play this game all day and night.

However, the definate FACTS about marriage and divorce in the USA are that the divorce rate is approx. half, and that men are hosed in a divorce. Those are facts. :)

Statistics aren't something to base your life on. I don't doubt that you're right about 50% of marriages ending in divorce. That's not what I'm disputing.

I'm saying that the way to change the divorce ratings is to change the society divorces are coming out of, not making divorce fairer. Divorce should be beside the point.

And among the people I'm closest to, divorce is much, much rarer than in general society. I gotta think they're doing something right.
