The Increased Mortality Due to Divorce
11 different
scholarly studies conclude:
 | Every two divorces in the US
causes one premature death.
|
| The premature mortality rates
of mothers, fathers, and the children of divorce increase by 30% to 200% after divorce.
|
| Non-marriage causes the
premature deaths of 270,000 women and 700,000 men each year.
|
| Each 100 additional divorces worldwide cause one additional murder, 6 additional
reports of rape, 33 additional armed robberies, and puts 100 more men in prison.
|
| Non-marriage is 3-11 times
greater a health risk than tobacco smoking--which Congress believes should be regulated.
|
| Forty five percent of
marriageable American males remain unmarried today, up from 23% in 1960, leaving 50
million women of marriageble age who are unmarried.
|
| Divorce increases the
premature mortality rate of men by 4x greater than it increases it for women.
|
| Divorce increases the
premature mortality rate of children by 44%.
|
| Divorced and remarried men
have a mortality rate 2.5 times higher than married but never
divorced men.
|
| Single men living alone had
identical mortality rates as those living with "significant others", but 2.2 times as high as married men.
|
| Divorced women have 16% higher mortality rates as single women and twice as high as
married women.
|
| Widowed women have mortality
rates up to 5 times higher than married women.
|
| Poor divorced women have a
mortality rate 3 times that of non-poor married women.
|
| Controlling for other
sociodemographic covariates, divorced and never married men are
2-3 times as likely as married men to die of heart disease, lung disease, cancer,
diabetes, accidents, suicide, homicide, and cirrhosis.
|
| Single men and women are 2-4
times more likely than married men and women to die of accidents,
auto accidents, homicide, suicide, violence, falls, lung cancer,
cirrhosis, diabetes, and heart disease.
|
| Single and divorced women have
mortality rates twice as high as married women.
|
| Single Japanese men have
"exceptionally high death rates".
|
| Church attendance cuts
mortality rates in half.
|
| Only 33% of black children
live with both parents.
|
| The US divorce rate increased
50 fold since the feminists met in Seneca Falls.
|
| Compared to married women,
divorced or single women are:
 | Twice as likely to die of
circulatory diseases.
|
| Twice as likely to die of
cancer.
|
| Three times as likely to die
of diabetes.
|
| Four times as likely to be
killed in an accident.
|
| Four times as likely to be
murdered.
|
| Five times as likely to die of
respiratory diseases.
|
| Five times as likely to commit
suicide.
|
| Five times as likely to die of
cirrhosis.
|
|
10.7 of each 1,000
unmarried women die each year, compared to 5.7 married women. |
Of every 1,000
women who divorce before age 30, at least 378 will die before age 65 compared to 266
married women. |
Of every 1,000
men who divorce before age 30, all of them will die before age 65 compared to 427 married
men. |
| If these 50 million unmarried women
were married, 270,000 fewer females would die each year and 2.2 million fewer would have
died over the last 26 years. |
Rather than admit that the
lower mortality rate of married women is due to the presence of males who protect them,
"feminist scholars" assert that it is due to
the presence of a woman who cooks nutritious meals.
Rather than admit that the
higher mortality rate of never married women (which is even higher than for divorced
women) is due to the absence of males, "feminist scholars" assert that it is due
to the inherent stress of female single life (while 'forgetting' that they can still cook
nutritious meals).
Blind
dumb feminists openly admit that they are responsible for the 50 fold increase in the
US divorce rate, can't identify one single way in which women as a group benefited from
feminism nor the Nineteenth Amendment, can't understand the connection between the higher
divorce and higher mortality rates, and are morally responsible for 2.2 million female
fatalities in the last 26 years.
