My parents divorced before I was 1, and they had to determine alimony and child support.  Did your parents stay together?
They did, until my mother passed away after over 33 years of marriage.
Monogamy is actually the law in most countries, but in some countries where polygyny is legal it allows only the woman to remarry.
That's interesting. I wasn't aware there was a gender issue when it came to remarriage. Does that mean these countries consider post-divorce marriage not monogamy?
Im guessing that polygyny is where a man has multiple marriages already, so the woman is the only partner to be able to remarry.  Seems complicated.
Yeah, very. There's always been this huge gender divide both legally and socially all over the world. Different standards for men and women, especially when it involves sexual expression.
That is very true.  Women are behind in a variety of societal norms, including education, labor market, and political representation.
Absolutely. It's astounding to look at government structure where women are such a small minority, then look at the fact that women make up right about 50% of the population wherever you go.
