Well, what do i know sef?
Afterall, i am only but a man...
But i think women are scared of divorce in nigeria because the nigerian society will not favour them.
Also, men are scared of divorce overseas because the system there favours female.So it is not about the gender, but the system and who it favours.

An average Nigeria woman is afraid of divorce bcs they feel that marriage is what makes them complete as a woman. So if they are out of it they have no life.

Easy to move on for man unlike woman.

When u are under a man as a wife, you won't know the value until you become free ranger

..........I think, Toyin Aimaku, Tonto Dikeh of this world understand better.



When a woman is single (divorcee) her values lower considerably. Even guys that are not up to her younger brother mates would ask her out, and if she don't careful, her house may become mini-brothel as a result of "shop and go" from different men and guys.

If not for abusive marriage and probably a chronic cheat, divorce shouldn't be an option

The bolded is exactly what blessing's question is all about, it is the likes of you that keep on policing womens lives like monitoring spirit, stigmatising them on what doesn't put food on your table, how exactly is it your business what divorced women or any woman choose to do with her life and body?

How does a single or divorced women's value decrease considerably? What exactly is the value of being under a man? If older women are getting attention from younger men, common sense should tell you that's because she has an extremely attractive personality.

In psychology, there is something they called "denial by repression". Meaning, denying obvious as if it's not happening. At my bolded,it's nothing but truth in reality.


They asked about reasons why women fear divorce than men and I told you biggest reasons, if you like accept if you like deceiving urself from reality.

Psychology is not 100% reality, so your bolded is the figment of your imagination

Being divorced has never killed anybody, but being in a useless marriage has killed so many people, that is reality.

One thing is certain, women scare divorce because perceived devalued outside marriages. Also, one thing is 100%, different kinds of guys and men ask divorce out farrrrrrr more than married women. They asked them out not for remarried on many occasions but just to use them to relieve tensions

You are an adult I don't expect this type of teenage thought process from you like those guys in romance section

And so what if different guys ask them out, is it a sin? What makes you think all divorced women want to remarry? How can a man still reason like this, when a man and woman have sex, they are pleasing and relieving themselves, they both enjoy it with women enjoying it the most, nobody is using anybody, they are both using each other to satisfy themselves, simple

You guys should stop with the judgy attitude, it is not a crime for people or women to live their lives the way they want, marriage isn't the gate way to heaven, neither does it guarantee wealth or a happy ending.

Have you pondered on the reasons, a Nigerian woman based with her Nigerian husband somewhere like in the UK, US etc will be more at ease divorcing from her Nigerian husband?

Uncle, in Psychology there is nothing like "denial by repression" as denial and repression are two distinct defense mechanisms.

1. The probability of her getting married again is lower, especially if she has children (I won't marry a divorcee, for sure)
2. Financial protection. If you loose your job as a married woman, your husband will most likely cover up for you in the area of finances.
3. True.
