TL;DR: Can't get divorced if you never get married
- taeric 8y agoProbably worth bolding that DR.
- monocasa 8y ago> ... the divorce rate as a ratio of divorces to the total number of married women. So, the divorce rate’s decline isn’t a reflection of a decline in marriages.
- seba_dos1 8y agoIt sure still can be. If people who would later divorce stopped getting married (for instance because it's more socially acceptable now to live together without marriage), causing a decline in marriages, divorce rate defined as a ratio of divorces to the total number of married women also gets lower.
