Is previous methods of teaching men as kids to be tough and hold emotions in the reason for today's high divorce rate?

[dwreborn]

I've been doing a lot of reading on present day marriage and divorce and a lot of issues is lack of emotional communication it seems thoughts?

Divorce can be caused for a whole litany of reasons. Toxic masculine patterns that force men to avoid any kind of emotional processing is definitely part of it. Another can be a disconnect regarding physical and sexual intimacy, a surprising amount of men are unable to tell the difference but all women can. There’s also the men who marry just so they won’t be alone and don’t actually love their wives but rather love what their wives do for them, etc.

nope. divorce is mostly women's fault

gay marriages have a far lower divorce rate than heterosexual marriages which have a far lower divorce rate than lesbian marriages

this means women are filing for divorce against women more than men are filing for divorce against omen

Yes 80% of divorce is the women choice dont know why you would think men because they naturally want to spread there seed or what it is

[Opinion Owner]

most men lack the options to cheat anyway

even fat women can get hot guys to sleep with them

[dwreborn]

Maybe they like fat ones

It's poor societal and cultural values. Social media reinforces many different mentally illnesses with their algorithms to maintain retention which has exponentially increased mental health issues. A lot of ssri are prescribed as well.

No, it is the misconception that guys want to share their feelings.

If i could've been a little bit more open with how i felt about stuff maybe i would still be married but not anymore nothing i can do but read and learn about other ways to communicate cause its a problem with couples in their 40's

[dwreborn]

Its not a want issue anymore its a must unfortunately if you can't give them more emotionally now in this day in age women know they dont need us to support them financially so if we can't open up and discuss the problems with them they are just gonna bail thats all it was we get along great its weird but it happened to me

[WhitneySnow]

That makes sense

[dwreborn]

That and women dont need men to survive financially anymore with my wife and i she just feels like something is empty in that part of her life and i support that just wish she could do it without thinking she needs to be single to do it but what can i do fight her about it and push her away further

[dwreborn]
