Handyman62 View Profile History	Statistically, who is more likely to file for divorce? Men or Women? Posted : 15 Mar, 2026 04:36 AM I keep hearing 70-80% of the divorces are filed by women. It's hard to get accurate numbers on anything that might make women look bad because google censors information like that. But I believe the numbers are at least that high because every divorced man I know or see online wasn't the one who did the divorcing and when I look at the other side it's always the women who did the divorcing.

WalkNTalk View Profile History	Statistically, who is more likely to file for divorce? Men or Women? Posted : 15 Mar, 2026 07:31 AM Yes, you could be right about that. I never heard my dad speak of divorce. Never ever. But I did hear my mom speak of divorce a few times. Nor did I hear my brother talking of divorce. But his first wife divorced him. His second wife was a divorced woman. She left her first husband and got the kids then had her marriage annulled by the king of her country. She called me on the phone once and said that unless my brother did x,y and z that she was going to divorce him. I think it is common for women to talk of divorce and common for them to initiate it.

Posted : 15 Mar, 2026 05:00 PM One of the problems is they're flighty and don't want to stay in one place or with the same person forever. They crave excitement and get bored easy and want to move on to someone else that excites them once their first husband no longer tickles their nether regions. That's why God didn't give them the power to divorce. God's not stupid but women are about many things and relationships are one of them. Post Reply
Jayzeee View Profile History	Statistically, who is more likely to file for divorce? Men or Women? Posted : 16 Mar, 2026 02:09 AM We know that statistically women are more likely to file for divorce. But men are are statistically the cause of the marriage breakdown. But they will sit for years in a situation that’s toxic, holding on to a marriage that exists in name only. Then they are surprised when the wife decides not to spend what’s left of her life in misery. This was said by a top New York lawyer…:-) Post Reply

WalkNTalk View Profile History	Statistically, who is more likely to file for divorce? Men or Women? Posted : 16 Mar, 2026 04:33 AM That New York Lawyer was not quoting Bible Laws. The woman is to GO FREE without payment of money. (Exodus 21:11) A wife is not to separate from her husband, but if she does, she must remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband and a husband must not divorce his wife. (1 Corinthians 7:10-11) But in the event of divorce, HOW does the Bible go about it? Deuteronomy 24:1-4 says, " If a man marries a woman who becomes displeasing to him because he finds something indecent about her, and he writes her a certificate of divorce, gives it to her and sends her from his house, 2 and if after she leaves his house she becomes the wife of another man, 3 and her second husband dislikes her and writes her a certificate of divorce, gives it to her and sends her from his house, or if he dies, 4 then her first husband, who divorced her, is not allowed to marry her again after she has been defiled. That would be detestable in the eyes of the Lord. Do not bring sin upon the land the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance." Under the Law through Moses, it is given to a man to write his wife a certificate of divorce. It is not given to a woman to write her husband a certificate of divorce. And there are instances where divorce is forbidden. (Deuteronomy 22:13-19 and Deuteronomy 22:28-29) But who follows the Bible anymore? Yet the idea is that Christians follow the Bible. But in reality, when do Christians ever follow the Bible? except to call Jesus "Lord". Jesus speaks against divorce and marriage after divorce, yet people do it anyway. We are such good followers of Christ. More, Paul speaks against involving the ungodly. (1 Corinthians 6:1) But we like to go before the ungodly for judgment. It is truly a FLIP-FLOP WORLD where right is wrong and wrong is right. Jesus says that any man that marries a divorced woman commits adultery. But it seems that divorced women are all that the church offers. Surely it isn't virgins. Post Reply

WalkNTalk View Profile History	Statistically, who is more likely to file for divorce? Men or Women? Posted : 16 Mar, 2026 05:01 AM I'd like to see where men statistically are the cause of the marriage breakdown. I thought for sure it was the women. The women want to usurp authority over the men with such slogans as "My Body/My Choice" "WOMEN HAVE THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE" "MY WAY OR THE HIGHWAY" "WHAT'S MINE IS MINE AND WHAT'S HIS IS MINE TOO." Yes, women have many slogans for their disobeying God. Woman was created for man, not man for woman. (1 Corinthians 11:9) Usually, the problem in marriage is that women want to be HEAD and disregard their husband's HEADSHIP. But I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. (1 Corinthians 11:3) Current government goes against such teachings and empower women against men so women play Judas and betray their husbands. Post Reply

Posted : 16 Mar, 2026 05:20 AM Jayzee speaks like a true woman by putting the blame on men for the toxicity and break down of the marriage. The toxicity begins with the indoctrination of women and when that happens as it already has women are no longer submissive to their husbands. Since women are naturally very selfish and self serving as Eve showed in the Garden of Eden it becomes easy for feminism (the world) to put into a woman's head that she can do what ever she wants without being shamed or having consequences. So then she has stopped following her husbands lead as God commands her to be. Now that women have been indoctrinated by feminism women flat out will not listen to their husband anymore and have become argumentative and they themselves make the relationships toxic. It wouldn't be that way if they just did what the scriptures told them and followed their husbands. Just think about all the arguments you had with your significant other and how "toxic it was. Now think about how quiet and non toxic things would have been if you just shut up and followed his lead like the God told you too. There's the problem in a nut shell. Women Ignore God and create 99% of the problems in a relationship because if their selfishness. Women like to claim that men are governed by their little head. And yes that certainly does have an effect at times. But the majority of a mans decisions are based on logic. On the other hand you could say that women are governed by their little canyon and of course that does also play a part. But the reality is most of their decisions are made by their emotions. So when the differences in decision making between men & women is looked at objectively you have the Men on one side who looks at a situation, weighs all the options and decides what to do based on logic. Then you have women on the other who sees a situation and makes a decision based on how she feels. So it's clear why God put men above women because it's painfully obvious they are not equipped to be the decision makers. And it's not a bad thing it's just the way God made all of us. But it's the Satan inspired feminism that has caused women to stray so far from Gods plan for them. Or rather women have allowed themselves to be sucked into feminism that is the cause. Post Reply
WalkNTalk View Profile History	Statistically, who is more likely to file for divorce? Men or Women? Posted : 16 Mar, 2026 06:19 AM You bring up a good point, Jayzee! Marriage license and marriage certificate are in "name only". There is often no value to them for a man. What does a man gain to have marriage license and marriage certificate? He gains a wife who will divorce him. He gains an adulterous wife. He gains losing most of what he has to alimony and childsupport payments, and she likely was not a virgin when they married. When one gets a marriage license and marriage certificate, that is the beginning of "in name only". You are very right, Jayzee. Thank you for sharing that. Post Reply
