why is that related to divorce rates?

Women can't get the high paying jobs traditionally performed by men, making them financially dependent.

Don't forget the abortion angle, combined with the healthcare and housing angles. Add in the poor public education angle and you've got a vicious cycle creating dependence on men and new generations of people with fewer resources to avoid getting caught in that cycle themselves.
