I was dead filing some client files a few weeks ago and I can across a woman's file who first placed insurance with us in 1965 in her own name after her divorce. Our agency had to fight to get this woman insurance in her own name BECAUSE of her divorce. There were testimonial letters from the local pastor, the agency owner and even the mayor of the town. Back then a single or divorced woman had no power, no place in society and very little in the way of rights. Try denying a woman insurance coverage today because of her marital status and see how quick the lawsuits fly. That is part of the reason divorce was not common place. In addition there were few women in the work force, see above.
I don't really see the point in going back to a time and place where half the population was being financially inslaved by the other half.
As for the greed factor - phhtttffff. Try and find a single man these days who wants a partner who can cook and clean. The majority of men out there are looking for blond barbie dolls. I would go so far as to suggest that the men out there on a barbie hunt are getting exactly what they deserve.
The rest of us females with a brain in our head are getting our selves a big loud dog and nice car instead of a husband.
DMD3 - let her go. If you're having to chase her that hard she does not want to be caught.
