Before I get into it, I’m going to generalise a lot. There’s a difference between the way an attractive, successful man acts vs the average man. I’m talking about the average man.
Reason 1: men are the ones who are more likely to see marriage as a forever commitment. This is why, despite filing for divorces the most, women are the most fearful about what happens after divorce. In any discussion about prenups for example, women will say that the man should trust the woman enough not to need one - then in their next breath they’ll say that they don’t want a prenup in case the guy divorces her for a younger woman.
Reason 2: the average woman has way more dating options than the average man. They might not be great options, the majority of them probably unattractive or are only interested in sex, but at the very least she gets showered with compliments and attention. The average man doesn’t have that, and feels less confident once he become single.
Reason 3: there are many people who marry someone who isn’t their ideal type. They settle. When men settle, it’s down to lack of options - they married one of the only women who liked them back. They can’t get another woman, therefore they’re less likely to leave. When women settle, it’s more down to the fact that the men they’re more attracted to will have sex with them but won’t commit, so they settled for a less attractive man who was more safe, sensible and stable long-term. The lack of passion in the relationship and the low sexual attraction on her end eventually leads to her wanting to leave and casually date the more attractive guys she used to date.
Because they always have other options.

This question makes it like all women get divorced for the same reason when there could be many factors/ reasons… some legit reasons like infidelity, physical/verbal abuse (none of which made your poll 🤷♀️)…
It is a sign of the times. Marriage is all about feeling butterflies and feeling happy all the time. The moment marriage gets harder and the feelings go away, then all the oaths and vows made go out the window.
It is all feelings and responsibilities, obligations, commitments, duties... etc., go out the window.
Unless there is actual physical abuse or cheating the majority of these divorces are just selfishness and laziness and lack of honor to vows. No fault divorce, alimony, women getting automatic primary custody and childcare payments incentivize divorces financially for women. That is why there is such a push these days for people to never marry, the financial risks being a man.
You're harder to please, expect more and less consequence oriented. I think that's it really.
For reference:
Woman/Woman has the highest divorce rate.
Woman/Man has about half of that.
Man/Man has significantly less than that.
Exactly the same goes for domestic violence.
Women really are, and have been in recorded history, the ones initiating divorces.
Sometimes I imagine women looking at this stuff, and going "Are we the baddies?".
Marriage treats women unfairly. Women lose in marriage while men win in marriage.
Vast majority of these married women are "married single moms" where they have to work a full time job then come home to clean up after their husband and kids.
Data shows that women do more housework while men do less housework after marriage.
women make less money after marriage while men make more money.
Life doesn't go as planned.
People tend to have this disney world channel view of relationships and marriage but the reality life is often a constant change with many challenges which can be our personal health, finances and stresses which leads to people changing over a period of time from the person we married.
Communication breaks down in the marriage, the sex gets boring and if children are involved that tends to complicate things as well.
As for why women initiate 80% of divorces is because they either getting abused, finance troubles or the husband cheated on her will be the main reasons why I will suppose.
Men love to make promises they can't keep... they promise you the world to get you but then never provide said promises so we realize this and move on..
They marry a hoe and then realize that all he is good for is his money. Men don't divorce as much because even if the marriage sucks and they would like to be rid of her, they would still rather keep their money.
Usually men put on a show at the beginning of the relationship where they act like they care. After a few years they show their true colors so women want to get a divorce because they realize how shitty the guy really is
Many reasons. The rise in addiction or immature men, the stagnant real wages paid to men since the 1970s reduces their value to materially-driven women, the rise of personality disorders, the incentive of alimony (although the economic outcomes after divorce in reality are usually bad for women and men alike), and the social acceptability and commonality of divorce.
Because today's women lack any sense of commitment.
If you look at divorce statistics among gay, lesbian and hetero couples, the lowest divorce rate is among gays, the highest rate by far is among lesbians, and the rate among hetero couples is in between the two. In other words, women are the common denominator in failed marriages.
Modern women have lost their sense of commitment and are destroying the institution of marriage.
i would to if i got a huge bribe in monthly payments. someone needs to change court results. the problem with my theory is lesbian divorce rate. who gets the money?
Die to the fact that they are not nearly as good as picking a guy as they think. They tend to suck at it.
Probably in most cases men get screwed, so why would they instigate
💲💲💲
Or why else are they getting alimoney and child support?
Option and a couple of other reasons, still divorce is a sin
Women are much more eager to get married than men, but after they get married they feel uncomfortable about getting married.
Ugh, another guy with a pink account. They are taken over this site.
she earns too much and he earns to little is at least 50 percent of all divorces
Women have commitment issues.
All of the above
