Asian culture is quite different than ours when it comes to marriage and loyalty I think.........plus it’s difficult for an Asian women to divorce since there’s a stigma attached within their collective community... As a group, Asian-Americans have the highest percentage of marriage (65 % versus 61% for whites) and the lowest percentage of divorce (4% versus 10.5% for whites).

In a culture it makes sense but of course it still does not make sense.

That 10.5% divorce rate for whites is not questionable but interesting in the face of the statistic that I read where only 18% of households with children are conventional... meaning I suppose children living with both original parent units who are married.

I think that Asian-American attitude on marriage is different depending on the generation...

First generation...Did not grow up in America...Try to avoid divorce at all costs...

1.5 and 2nd generations...Grew up in America...They are not afraid to divorce...Many of them will not stay in unhappy marriages for the sake of "saving face"...

Just my opinion...
