Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Domestic abusers love this idea
No dummy, this type of shit is exactly what increases domestic violence, spousal rape, and spousal murder.
Time to grow the fuck up and realize a wife isn't a sex doll combined with a domestic servant.
If this is your religion telling you this then fuck your religion, and any other religion that offers abusive lines of thinking like this.
Do you realize that just saying no to everything doesn't constitute an actual discussion? How about giving an actual reason or logic for what you're arguing rather than just saying no increasingly louder like a child. Or is that what your priest told you when you started asking questions?
He's a "feelings, not facts" kind of guy. You can't win with logic, only the block button.
Amen to that, pal.
Are you saying that a cons' primal scream of rage is not an actual argument? How dare you!
/s
What you have offered, Fishshake, is not discussion at all, but a toddler-like repetition of the word "no" as though you are just now learning the power of language. Congratulations on your personal milestone there, buddy. But I don't feel like waiting for you to reach maturity so I am blocking you now. Feel free to have the last word, and be sure to "no" it all to hell so that others can get a laugh out of it too. Buhbye.
The facts don't care about your feelings, idiot (and the facts say you're completely wrong).
You're describing enabling domestic abuse, even though you think you aren't.
Lol, tell me you think you should be able to abuse your wife without just SAYING "I should be able to abuse my wife if I wanna!"
Can you provide us a detailed description of how divorces and marriages should work instead of one sentences per comment? I’m genuinely curious.
Did some hurt you? Was you no longer able to abuse or control someone? Because you feel really strongly about this. Our are you just trolling?
But why? What's your reasoning behind why people divorcing or wanting out of a relationship is a bad thing?

Smells like a troll to me.
Moral reality. There it is. This dude personally thinks it's wrong, which means with no other good reason every single other person in the country must go along with it. If you think a divorce is morally wrong, don't get one. Knock yourself out. Find a partner who doesn't want to get one. But you have no right to force that belief onto others.
Yeah, but if they are a conservative, they generally adhere to the Southern version of "liberty" - meaning, having the "liberty" to rule over others.
Maybe like the other poster said it should be harder to get married then less people wouldn't have to get divorced.
Then should it also be incredibly hard to get into?
People can already divorce if they are being abused or cheated on. By making it a legal requirement that must be proven you make it more difficult for these people to leave those marriages and put the burden of proof onto them. You aren't going to reduce domestic abuse with a policy like that.
I smell a troll
Divorce isn't shameful. You have no idea why people get divorced. Your immaturity is showing bright and clear in these comments. You sound like I did in middle school.
fuck your polite society
"should not be discussed in polite society."
This comment proves you don't live in reality.
Why do you believe that? I mean, I can understand if you personally don't want to get divorced, but what about other people ? Would you restrict their ability to get divorced because of your personal belief?
Should all people who get divorced and remarried be forced back into their original marriage?
So kidnapping and imprisonment is what marriage is to you?
Marriage is a pact based on love and partnership, what you're suggesting is slavery.
You got some major incel vibes going on bro, time to take yourself to a licensed mental health professional.
Trying to keep someone in a marriage that they do not want to be in is inherently abusive, so trying to prove it in the event that one party did not allow the marriage to be ended would be redundant.
No. You should be able to leave a marriage for whatever reason you want. There should be a small barrier to avoid overloading the courts, but that's it.
