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.

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've dated conservative women a few times, they definitely said things like "I don't let that come into my relationships" and that never ended up being the fact. And goddamn it they all were REALLY into D/s dynamics. Albeit that's a quality I typically find in a partner, but tbh they kinda excelled at playing the role phew.

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

There's statistics about voting rates amongst single, married and divorced women in the USA. Married women are the most conservative mostly due to age skew) followed by the other two. I can't remember if single or divorced leans more liberal but there's a big gap

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.

My dad, after a discussion in my young adult years turned political: "if you're not a liberal when you're young, you don't have a heart. If you're not conservative when you're an adult, you don't have a brain."

Well, dad, I have made it to adulthood with brilliant children and great relationships with them to boot. I'm still a screaming liberal and you're still a racist that is gargling the balls of a wannabe dictator.

Have a mortgage and a kid, more left now than I ever was in my past. While recognizing that not everyone wants those things, my living standard really should be the baseline and I don't mind paying taxes to make it easier for others to achieve it. It does piss me off that most of my taxes go to a military I don't approve of though.

As someone middle class I’d really like a functioning government more than the amount I’m taxed.

Also republicans don’t lower my taxes, they raise them and decrease funding for the poor then go on a rant about divorce needing to be banned

I'm curious what you read this as?
