Career Women Are Prone To Divorce: True? by temmythe(f): 11:51am On Sep 25, 2012 |
This can’t be true! Or can it? According to Forbes magazine journalist, Michael Noer it is. He says that career women who make over $30,000 a year are more prone to divorcing their husbands because they are financially independent. This makes some sense . He also said that some of these career ladies might find someone at the office they like more than their husband’s. The last reason I found extremely silly. http://www.forbes.com/2006/08/23/Marriage-Careers-Divorce_cx_mn_land.html what do you think, House? |

So finance plays a major role in women divorcing men.... hmmmm!!! Why bother getting married in the first place. The women marry for the comforts and benefits only to divorce the men when they have gained all they can. Men are getting shortchanged in marriage. |

Let borrow this logic for a minute.... Do you think a poor woman who has nothing to show nor give will divorce her husband or the hand that is feeding her I am not saying poor women WILL NOT DIVORCE their husband but it can happens if the marriage is bad enough but unlikely. The woman has the mean to leave her husband if he is cheating on her, threatening her life, or alienated her. I don't see any reasons why she would stay if she can support herself even without alimony/child support. Once poor women who are in bleeped up marriages find a mean to an end...they would too divorce their husbands. It is about having that dough and courage to do so. 1 Like |

No wahalla if you have a way out. Moni make iron float Imagine a man beating his wife who is a doctor (which does happen). Eventually she will say I do not have to tolerate this and her money will establish her in a safe environment. The poor housewife who has no resources must stay or face hunger. Look at every country where women gained more education and financial equality. As their rights increased, so did divorce. Husbands can no longer mistreat their wives and expect them to tolerate it. It is a new day, and marital respect must be mutual. 9 Likes |

Not common in Nigeria. Most of the career women in Nigeria are actually the most faithful wives since they are too busy to even have time to mess around. Married career women in financial institutions and IT and oil companies in Nigeria have been good wives and mothers as well. There are some exceptions, but they still made up with their husbands. Divorce is not common in Nigeria, because of the women are always at the receiving end of the Nigerian society and they are often stigmatized and ostracized. 6 Likes |

I'm disapointd at the responses so far.The post didnt say rich or poor women or financial security.It says career women.Career women are have one focus,drive and goal and that is not their family.It is their career.They hardly get married on time cos they believe marriage is gona affect their career and also the pride in them and an unquenchable desire to be independent make them marry late. They also achieve more status,money and grow up faster in corporate ladder. When married,they become irritable,unhappy and difficult to control by husbands who keep nagging at the hours spent nursing her career.She employs a house maid who end up making up for the emotional vacuum her continous stay outside attending to her career life create at home.The husband is left to satisfy his sexual,emotional, psychological needs outside.Many men who gets advised by friends start keeping extra mariagtal affairs and who says the madam career is not already tripping for the guyz at office whom she spent all her time with. Then just a matter of time an inevitable divorce.Since d woman is ok financially,bossy,busy,uncaring,proud she wil want a quick exit and freedom to face her career 9 Likes |

True. Watched this doccie one time that attributed the cause of higher divorce rate in America to financially stable women. Career women tend to put their all in their careers rather than family. A financially stable woman has no need for a man because the core purpose men have in women's lives- to provide, has been tackled. 4 Likes |

People need to stop confusing career women with feminists... A woman can have a great career and still be a good wife... However, a feminist with a good career would want to challenge the status quo, and the norm about 'male superiority' in the family - hence why most families fall apart... |
