Already illegal in Missouri for pregnant women to divorce their spouse

Some people have been married for longer than republicans have been open fascists.

Why would someone vote for themselves to be a second class citizen?

I dunno.

I always wondered that and I finally met not one, but TWO people who fit this criteria.

The first person was married with kids, and she's afraid to leave because she doesn't know if she's the primary breadwinner, and to divorce would mean she would struggle taking care of two kids by herself. The husband isn't abusive (her comments), but he seems to want her to be a tradwife while also wanting her to work.

The second person shared that she married her high school sweetheart. But she was already questioning things when he spouted Joe Rogan/Jordan Peterson BS, and would flip out at work on male coworkers and put words in our mouths. After a report, I learned about her marriage issues and providing support for the past few months. But all the workplace can do is give her some therapy sessions and hopes she gets the fuck out of her predicament.

unfortunately most of them don't have girlfriends. some of them never did. the party is relying on incels and divorced dads.

Things happen. Stuff. Reasons.

I personality know two very liberal women who married right wing nutjobs, the first one married a full MAGA, proud boys type militia and election denier guy who she thought she could change him (she couldn't).

The other one thought that political differences didn't matter in a romantic relationship (it did).

Both ended up in divorce.

I tend to believe people don't really change but they do tend to show their true colors eventually. However, some of us are not a great judge of character.

Life is also complicated and messy.

Depends on whether the study is from places likely to be subject to bias like the “conservative” group institute for family values that claims county level polling shows more democrats get divorced (despite conceding the accuracy of state level polling?), or more normal groups that have shown for a decade plus now that red states have higher divorce rates. Top five are:

1. Nevada
2. Oklahoma
3. Wyoming
4. Alabama
5. Arkansas

I don't know what conclusion that would give. That they jump into marriage faster? That they're willing to leave a bad situation?

I don't think low divorce rates necessarily correlates to happier people.

On the contrary, during World War II, French prostitutes would purposely spread venereal disease to nazis. They would also get nazis hooked on heroin.

Unfortunately, MAGAs tend to already have both those issues.

I'm curious what you read this as?
