What main reason why women divorce ?

Hello, I’m confused on a topic (I’m trying to get rid of red pill thinking but I still have topics where I’m confused)

Why do women divorce more than men

I’ve read articles (not studies) suggesting that women’s higher expectations/ unfulfilled emotional needs would be why they divorce?

What is unfulfilled emotional needs? Isnt this a selfish reason to divorce ? Is it the main reason why women divorce?

Does anyone has sources or can help me ?

This is the articles I’ve read ;

Women file the paperwork more.

If a man cheats, is abusive, goes for milk and never comes back - he’s ended the relationship. She just filed the paperwork.

What’s the point of being married if your emotional needs aren’t being met?

Réponse à blurryeyes_… I agree that there’s no point staying married in such case

But If you have kids ? Like doesnt divorce badly impact kid ? Or is the negative impact exaggerated ? And what about the « broken families »

Also does being unfulfilled emotionally also have an impact on kids ?

This is a myth. It is almost always better for the kids for the parents to divorce if they are miserable together.

I retract this paper it comes from conservative people who believe in conversion therapy and are against vaccine etc

My bad, I think this paper is probably heavily biased because it seems like it cites decrease of religious practice as a problem
