I was relistening to an episode of the podcast “The age of Napoleon” and it was about the Code Civile and (partly) about how it reverted women’s rights concerning divorce. During the French revolution women gained a lot of rights, including the rights to divorce from abusive husbands. The Code Civile actually reverted some of those rights, hence why this was mentioned, but it’s quite amazing that over 200 years we are still having these discussions.
Is it really that difficult to not consider 50% of the population inferior by default?
I’m reminded of the quote “in the game of patriarchy women aren’t a team but the ball”.
But also no fault divorce benefits everyone except people who want to be married to people who don’t want to be married to them. It also benefits the children. My parents really should’ve divorced considering how much they couldn’t stand each other.

Why would Republicans care about Children? It’s not like they’re fetuses or anything!
Not really so amazing when people still worship cave men deities. Not the good ones, either.
