The points made here are valid, but there are other factors in play today that weren't as prevalent or in some instances non-existent in previous generations that have led to the increase in divorce and the rise in the number of people who don't marry at all. These include hookup culture, the availability of porn, quick and easy divorces, the emergence of the internet, and the collapse of the church. People have always been self-interested, it's just a whole lot easier and acceptable to act on it these days.

@lottavuorinen That may have been the case in your marriage and that is sad. My wife and I both worked and I did most of the cooking because I was usually home first and I didn't mind. I also did the grocery shopping, lawn work, and we split cleaning up the house. But my marriage still ended up on the rocks. No two situations are alike and it's not always who is doing what around the house that determines happiness. Single women and men for that matter may be happy when they are young but that often changes when they get older. I wish you well, I truly do, but how you feel today may not be how you feel later on down the road. That's all I'm saying.
