“Jenny :
Helen:
“Seriously, you have a shallow perspective on relationships and human beings in general.” Actually, no. Just pointing out that a lot of people are. And that men are as notorious (or more so) for leaving a woman for a younger model as women are for leaving an out of work man — given they have the personal assets to have an attractive option. And often the person getting divorced for their partner’s shallow reasons, are equally shallow — it’s just that their shallow reasons are still being met.”
Jenny, the first rule we must establish is that notoriety does not equal frequency. The fact that women have hyped up the textbook case for divorce doesn’t make the hype correct. Now, through the most revealing statistic that the majority of women leave their men without hesitation, because they know that the state will pick up after them, it is certainly not hype to say that women should have all the notoriety that they project onto men.
I asked a question earlier, and nobody has bothered to give an explanation, so I will ask it again: Why is it that 70% OF ALL DIVORCES are instigated by the ones who are supposed to crave commitment? In short, why is it that the ones who are supposed to be commitment creatures; asking for commitment so liberally, are the very ones who also shun and abhor commitment?
