Re: Divorced men ..
There is another problem in our culture, **most males want a virgin, that is another reason a divorced female will be looked down upon. Also they fear a female strong enough to leave a nasty husband, if she is the one who left him. **They often want someone they can controll and a woman leaving her husband of course can’t be controlled. But a female who was left by her husband also has difficulties, then people blame her.
A lot depends on your family, on family friends, etc. Nowadays a lot is changing. More often than not a divorced female has a second marriage too. I myself am divorced. I was married and divorced young and raised my children alone. I opted to remain single and plan to die single. It’s also about what you want and what you need, not just how society feels about you.
Right there with you. Particularly the bolded. It doesn’t matter that my former husband was my only or that the reasons for divorce were fully valid from religious and societal views… that scarlet letter remains.
