Feminist should be blame for America's trend toward high divorce rates, starting in the 1970s. Women are began to bring in ideas such as "Women doing housework were people outside the modern economic system, therefore they were like serfs or peasants." which encourage themselves to pursue freedom and rights. This causes law like no-faults divorce to
form.
Society should also be blame for America's trend towards high divorce rates because man has always been positioned superior than woman. For example, society has always expect man to work, and woman was always expected to " made the beds, shopped for groceries, matched slip-cover material, ate peanut butter sandwiches with her children, chauffeured Cub Scouts and Brownies" this was a stereo-type that the society created together, therefore it leads to woman wanting "change" which drives the divorce rates.
On the other hand, Man should also be blame for America's trend towards high divorce rate. Man started the "Jennifer fever". This means that old man were panicking with their middle age crisis, they started to find their wife no longer fulfilling, and desires younger woman. This drives the divorce rate and leaving the society with marriage gap in the late 20th century.
