"arguing that it has harmed men and even destroyed the fabric of society."

Ahh yes, the injustice of the millennium. Abusive, asshole men can't keep their wives against their will...

Last year, the popular right-wing podcaster Steven Crowder announced his own unwilling split. “My then-wife decided that she didn’t want to be married anymore,” he complained, “and in the state of Texas, that is completely permitted.”

I mean, women only exist to be owned by their husbands, after all.

Sounds like a great way to make sure the number of marriages plummets even faster than it already has been

Next after that is "legalized discrimination against the unmarried".

We already have that. You can spend your entire life in a loving relationship with somebody and still not have rights to medical information, power of attorney, or any of the numerous tax benefits that come along with marriage

Not to mention car insurance pricing.

Also expect them to argue that self defense laws don't apply to women against their husbands.
