Divorce Rates Rise Across America Reflecting Economic Independence
Writer Benjamin P. Chass notes divorces more than double since 1890 and quadruple since 1870, driven by economically independent women who demand rights after marriage. He cites 1890 one in sixteen marriages ending in divorce and 1923 one in seven and a half, with Pacific coast leading and New York lowest at 92 per 100,000. He also observes longer marriages initially rise to year three before declining, and criticizes modern youth for judging marriage by appearances.
