While I don't feel like contesting the first few points, because I feel like they might be close to accurate, but your point after 5 is loaded and misleading.

While I don't feel like contesting the first few points, because I feel like they might be close to accurate, but your point after 5 is loaded and misleading. I feel you have cherry picked your numbers out of your own source. Here is a complimentary figure to your 90% of divorces instigated by women in scenarios where higher education is had by both couples.
"Success in marriage has been associated with higher education and higher age. 81% of college graduates, over 26 years of age, who wed in the 1980s, were still married 20 years later. 65% of college graduates under 26 who married in the 1980s, were still married 20 years later. 49% of high school graduates under 26 years old who married in the 1980s, were still married 20 years later.[27] Population studies have found that in 2004 and 2008, liberal-voting states have lower rates of divorce than conservative-voting states, possibly because people in liberal states tend to wait longer before getting married.[28] In 2009, 2.9% of adults 35-39 without a college degree were divorced, compared with 1.6% with a college education.[29]"
So maybe your 90% figure is true, but that is true in a largely reduced set of cases according to the same article.
