No-fault divorce is actually very recent. That is, a divorce just because you wanted to get divorced and not because they were guilty of some provable transgression. California’s no-fault divorce law was 1966; the latest US state, it was 2010. When I was in Catholic school, we were taught to believe in and promote anti-no-fault-divorce positions. This is very recent history, and you cannot take even this for granted. Stop being “edgy” about feminism and its flaws. Every movement will have some flaws. But do you not think that this, and the risk it represents, is significant to women as a class of all backgrounds?
Hey fun fact the reason the murder rate went down when no fault divorce was introduced was because beforehand when women were being abused they would just kill their husbands. do not come at this post with the “well abused people can still get out” like good fucking luck ask any actual abuse victem how the courts been to them ill wait
It’s the other way around. The spousal murder rate didn’t drop because angry women no longer snapped and killed their husbands - it dropped because abusive husbands no longer had access to easy victims.

No-fault divorce saves women’s lives and removes a lot of men’s access to easy targets for abuse, and that’s why they’re trying to get rid of it.
