Lesbians divorce at higher rates than heterosexual couples and more than six times more than gay men.

Lesbians: Why are we so miserable with each other? It's Men's fault!

Skill Issue.

If you’re a young man who still pondering a career, then go be a lesbian divorce attorney. Apparently you will do well.

Thuban · 2024-10-01T23:01:26+00:00

I think they have a higher incidence of cheating as well. But I'm not sure.

“Men are the problem”

mrmensplights · 2024-10-01T23:26:40+00:00

Well, in marriage between men and women, women initiate 70% of divorces.

Lesbian couple? Multiply by 2

Gay couple? Divide by 2.

I've heard two reasons for higher lesbian divorce rates from feminists.

The first was that lesbians move in together too quickly. There's actually a term for this, "U-Haul Lesbians." It implies a tendency among women to commit too early to a relationship, which will naturally lead to too many incompatible people getting married.

The second was that women are frequently stuck in marriages with men they believe will murder them if they got divorced.

So it's actually kind of humorous. The first reason is about the benevolence of women and desire to commit everything to a relationship partner. The second reason is that men are murderous barbarians, and women are simply less afraid to divorce other women.

I mean, I have a much simpler idea. Anyone here ever live long-term with a woman? Now take all the pointless jabs, all the argumentative behavior, all the emotional meltdowns, all the control issues, all the weaponized incompetence, all the abusive tendencies... and now double all that.

Oh, and both partners have not had it instilled on them since birth to never raise a hand towards a woman. Both partners were raised in the "Women are always right" climate.

Yeah. It's no surprise at all. Men don't walk out because men have undergone decades of indoctrination to favor women in relationships. Women have undergone decades of indoctrination to always put themselves first over their relationship partners, but the assumption was always that their partners would be men.

If you don't believe me, look at male/male marriages. Lowest divorce rates. Why? Men are taught to compromise in relationships. When there's no woman around to make demands and throw tantrums when she doesn't get her way, shit goes a lot smoother.

As Al Bundy said, “don’t try to understand women. Women understand other women and they hate each other.”

CompetitiveOffer5339 · 2024-10-01T23:03:37+00:00

Yeah, feminists completely works off of opinions, nothing is facts.

Particular-Tap1211 · 2024-10-02T00:53:58+00:00

Imagine a media campaign and DV cases that highlight women as the perpetrator!? Now that would sends tongues wagging...

BelCantoTenor · 2024-10-02T03:34:28+00:00

Gay man here. Lesbians are high drama and are fickle in relationships. Gay men sleep around a lot more than lesbians do, but, as a whole…gay men put a lot more thought and caution and consideration into lasting relationships and friendships. I have known and been friends with many other gay men for decades. And know many gay male couples who have been married for decades.

Gay men also learn to compromise and communicate better in a relationship, I think. I’m pretty sure it was gay men who invented the idea of an “open marriage”. It’s incredibly common in gay male relationships. Thats just an example of a pretty major compromise imo.

Also, there is a tendency for lesbians and gay men to not socialize much with each other, they just don’t seem to intermingle much. Just something I’ve noticed in my life. It happens. It’s just not common.

Inconvenient truths

_name_of_the_user_ · 2024-10-02T01:12:36+00:00

It's almost like men aren't afraid of commitment, they're afraid of a lack of commitment from their partner.

WhenYoung333 · 2024-10-02T05:02:30+00:00

Once I literally saved a lesbian from commitong suicide. My price ? Her calling me all shorts of names 2 years later for diasagreeing on politics.

I don't know what's the thing with them but they seem to be let's say mentally challenged.

No_Mercy_4_Potatoes · 2024-10-01T23:55:26+00:00

They'll somehow blame patriarchy for lesbian divorces.

Planimation4life · 2024-10-02T04:01:08+00:00

I only met two lesbians that where nice, most are very bitchy or have this bully type persona

Low_Rich_5436 · 2024-10-02T11:14:30+00:00

The study shows that gays marry later and have much greater age differences than lesbians. This seems a very significant factor which they do not adress (except if they do in the math part I'm unable to understand).

My theory (and lived experience) is that lesbians Uhaul young relationships into rushed mariages while gays marry after 10 or more years of living together.

Infamous_Impact2898 · 2024-10-02T03:36:32+00:00

Love how they can’t even stand themselves 😂

DO-Kagome · 2024-10-02T03:00:06+00:00

Men literally go to war with brothers they don't even know and invade and defend countries. It doesn't surprise me men can navigate a marriage better together versus two women.

AigisxLabrys · 2024-10-02T00:16:59+00:00

Somehow they’ll deflect or blame this on men.

White_Buffalos · 2024-10-02T08:51:51+00:00

I sum it up thusly: Equality looks like oppression to the privileged.

So when women are disappointed in the least, they lash out. Too much emotional dysregulation, and too high of expectations. They have no idea what true equality looks like.

Generally women are poor communicators, as they expect people to read their minds and pick up on their moods instead of articulating them. Additionally, they only understand their privileged perspective, and when they don't get what they want (too strong an attachment to an outcome), they resort to violence at worst or avoidance at best (leaving).

Women generally have very little grit or resilience, also. All of this contributes to negative outcomes. Males are more consistent.

Alkatane · 2024-10-02T08:00:38+00:00

Why are you homophobic!!!!!! /s

Hot_Dentist_183 · 2024-10-03T10:01:12+00:00

In all countries where same-sex marriage is legal, the divorce rate for lesbians is much higher than for gay men. If men could have children with each other, the divorce rate for gay men would be lower

yourcarlosdanger · 2024-10-02T02:03:30+00:00

And they cant divorce rape their ex. That must be really disappointing to them. Being entitled to it an all.

SirPorthos · 2024-10-02T02:06:22+00:00

What was that phrase again....?

Right.

Bitches be trippin.

izzy_bear_99 · 2024-10-02T17:46:09+00:00

I am a lesbian in a long term relationship. From my experience, lesbians love to “uhaul” and speed run relationship milestones. Not exaggerating when I say a lot of lesbians will go on a first date, say I love you, move in together, adopt pets, get engaged, and get married within the span of like a year.

Women also typically feel like they have more “options” what with society being all “women can do no wrong slay queen!”. Just like there are shitty men, there is an equal amount of shitty women, we have just deemed it “misogynistic” to point out. Add in the fact that a significant portion of lesbians cling to their “oppressed” status and thus feel like the world is against them and they can do no wrong.

WanabeInflatable · 2024-10-02T06:48:38+00:00

I read the article and didn't see there 6 times more than gay men.

According to article gay men are divorcing slightly more often then hetero. Not as often as lesbians, though

QuantumHalyard · 2024-10-02T10:09:49+00:00

I’m unsurprised that gay marriages are only a little less stable than heterosexual ones. For some reason they seem to work very well in spite of the lack of some sociobiological bindings that straight couples have. So good on gay men I guess. Not really helping the “it’s men’s fault” rhetoric lol

Similar_Courage_6296 · 2024-10-02T00:30:04+00:00

Why do lesbians have higher divorce rates?

Because scissors get dull.

jjlikenoodles321 · 2024-10-02T14:20:24+00:00

This is actually because it is normally the man who wants to keep the relationship together.

Roamer56 · 2024-10-02T18:30:38+00:00

Too much estrogen for a marriage to handle. My sister told me that one!

I_Use_Dash · 2024-10-02T16:32:36+00:00

Ok, I hate this point because by itself it doesn't really mean anything.

If men were More desperate and are More prone to stay in unhappy marriages, that would explain this trend, too. If men were More likely to accept a cheating partner, that would explain this trend too.

Going "Lesbian relationships have a higher divorce rate than hetero and mlm relationships" doesn't say much aside from "Lesbian relationships have a higher divorce rate than hetero and mlm relationships" by itself. It certainly doesn't say "Men are not the problem", you can dispell that argument by asking whoever puts it forward why men are the problem. Burden of proof and all that

Successful_Video_970 · 2024-10-02T20:45:07+00:00

Well you now have two people in a relationship that complain.

neutralinallthings · 2024-10-02T08:51:17+00:00

Lesbian's divorcing is NOT a Men's rights issue

MypronounisDR · 2024-10-02T11:51:59+00:00

Cue the sad trombone...

xlerv8 · 2024-10-03T14:39:17+00:00

Yup, I read this fact up, maybe a year or so ago. Another fun fact is that there are also much higher incidences of DV in same sex Lesbian couples as well.

But let's also blame that on Men.

Kyra92Hayes · 2024-10-05T01:38:37+00:00

It really makes you think. Like why is it so hard for women to get along with both men and women.

DSLarson18 · 2025-04-24T09:56:29+00:00

What does women's social business between themselves have to do with men's rights? Women disgust you, yet you dicuss them to the point of obsession. The amount of time y'all spend on shoving your faces up women's vaginas just to complain about it, could be better spent actually making shit happen in the men's rights arena. If you really cared about men's rights, y'all would not be so distracted by women's dealings with other women. Gossiping and sipping tea like the very people you "can't stand". Meanwhile, men are still dying in wars, being "fucked" in family courts and are not being treated fairly by the society y'all built. Are you expecting women to fix that for you while you sit here booing them and not lifting a finger toward your own causes? If y'all simply decided to mind your collective business and stand on that business, much headway would be made to solve the problems y'all scream and beat chests about every time y'all gather together. The Feminists get more publicity and make more progress because they don't waste as much time on sitting around with men's dicks stuck to their lips, gossipping and sipping tea about men's business. Unlike y'all. Time to walk the walk. Too much time is being wasted on talk. Just a suggestion. I would not dare tell y'all what to do, afterall, I am just a woman. What do I know?

Ipman124 · 2024-10-02T09:34:36+00:00

I don't know how this has to do with anything. Is it implying that lesbians hate men? I don't get it

Tiny_Professional358 · 2024-10-02T18:41:44+00:00

Yet somehow they’re still blaming men it’s honestly hilarious.

2024-10-02T07:54:50+00:00

Why does this matter?

AigisxLabrys · 2024-10-01T23:55:06+00:00

How is this related to mens rights? What's the point of this?
