MARRIAGE RELATED STATISTICS
A recent issue of Cosmopolitan Magazine offered these statistics dealing with marriage, divorce, and being single: – An estimated one-half to two- thirds of women who married in the 1980’s will divorce. – More women (43%) than men (31%) approve of divorce for unhappily married couples with young children. – Fewer women (37%) than men (50%) say it is better to be married than to go through life single. – 40% of female high school singles don’t consider it very likely that they’ll be married to the same person for life. – And, couples who live together before getting married are more likely to divorce within 10 years than couples who don’t.
