Wouldn't it be worse to trap someone in a relationship that they aren't enjoying? And isn't it a sign that many women aren't enjoying their marriage if they initiate 70% of divorces? We should look into why they aren't happy, not force them to stay when they aren't.
That's a problem solving mentality. Some women are not interested in solving problems, they are interested in being excited. The high divorce rate increases with gay female couples and decreases with gay male couples.
What you call trapped, I call commitment. We may as well just not get married then, to do the women the great honor of not trapping them. Especially if there is no upside for men.
I don't define love by feelings in my tummy, I define it by the actions you take to put someone's needs ahead of your own. Feelings change by the year, by the week, by the day, by the moment. No stable family will survive if it simply operates based on the whims of emotions.
