    I heard once that after no-fault divorces started becoming wide-spread, murders of husbands by their wives decreased, since women now had a way to get out of a marriage.

    I wonder if that trend will reverse.

      I often used to scratch my head at hearing creaky old cons complaining about no-fault divorce. I thought those crusty old sort had mostly left this plane, but it seems some of the young cons are now making that a thing again.

      They really, really, really just want to control the wimminfolk. Things like contraception, access to financial services, being able to drive, and yes, abortion (“on demand”, as if anything else makes any sense - what the hell else would any health service be, FFS - I’ve always laughed at people adding “on demand” to the conversation as if it’s a BAD thing. ) drives a certain type of person (men AND women, by the way) up the wall…
