Ilaine, women when they get what is within reach, they ask for more, when they get that more, they go for even more. Most of my close friends have always been female. I always learned a lot from them. Women want the whole deal. They tell that money is not the deal. But it is part of the deal. Love is not the deal is part of the deal. Sex is not the deal either but is part of the deal. Every thing is part of the deal they reason. We men tend to settled for what we can get, women never set for what they’ve got. They go for the next level. Some women cannot be complete as single. They look for a husband. Then got one and then they look back to the freedom they enjoyed and they want that too. All women want to have children. Once they get them, (usually after the kid is 5 years old) they want to go back to work. TJ, watch out! If they failed in seeking work they want, they blame the family. They can get unhappy with the married life not because of the husband or the situation per se, but inside their head they were barred to get that work because they stopped to raise a family. In all those sentences above is the reason for divorce.

If by 50% you imply that 50% of American women are divorced, you need to brush up on elementary statistics. That one's a howler. No, you need to brush up on elementary mathematical principles. Like rounding. In actual fact, precisely 45.9% of women in the US who have been married at least once are no longer married to their first husband... That's close enough to 50% to justify sound-bite value. In case it matters, the rate at which liberated, emancipated, American women, voluntarily marrying for love the second time round STILL fail to make an effective decision is marginally improved to 45.2% And you claim that America's divorce laws are doing anybody a service? Now that's a "howler"! As far as I can tell, the vast majority of divorce lawyers are a waste of oxygen.
