The USA has No Fault Divorce. It has resulted in men getting the shaft
quietly and peacefully, and has increased the number of divorces because
women don't have to think up a reason to dump their husband.

Men liked the idea of "no fault" divorce, Balls; it helped them ditch
the witch. And now that women have decided that marriage tends not to
work so well for them, you object? That's funny. Keep in mind that it
was a mostly male judiciary that found for no - fault divorce because
they came to realize that it takes two to make a good marriage, and
that both parties are generally responsible for keeping marriage good.

Nor do men. You wanted it, you got it. I love it.

Unfortunately, women are twice as likely as men to trash their marriage.
It's enough to make men think wistfully of the days when they needed a
reason.

Well, a woman can divorce you if you don't pick up your socks, and you
can also divorce her for whatever reason you have. It _seem_ that
women simply have greater reasons TO divorce now. Perhaps men have not
caught up with the way things are today.

Most young guys think of the immediate moment in time, a woman, okay
marriage. Women
in most cases don't marry for the moment, they marry for the longer
bigger picture.
Men marry women who will do and women marry men for their potential.
Men who don't
listen to their women lose them in most cases. Men who keep their wifes
listen to their
wives. It is that simple.
