It has led to a well-documented transfer of over $100 billion a year in directly-resulting social costs to the backs of taxpayers, increased the poverty of the lowest income residents / elderly, reduced the marriage rate in our "savvier-than-that" young people who now cohabit to bear children out of wedlock instead, has thoroughly corrupted the morals in our churches, and led to a pestilence of newfound moral blight and derangement, ranging from weekly mass school shootings to gender disorders we never used to have. America is learning the hard way that marriage is about the wellbeing of society as whole, the flourishing of children -- and not the self-focused desires of adults.

There is no valid role for government in merely licensing and un-licensing adult romantic relationships. The valid role is in seeing to the wellbeing of families and generations. Making a profoundly selfish woman wait five years to begin living immorally (if she's not already doing so now, regardless) seems a small price in comparison with the overwhelming good of the whole. How ironic that the U.S. will likely be seeing a few states begin making serious inroads toward repeal by the time the legal and feminist lobby succeeds in swindling the British public with this Trojan Horse.

The difficulty is that if you accept your spouses behaviour for a long time, it infers that you view this as ‘normal’. Moreover, if you do not expect/demand more from your spouse, they can argue that they have been the perfect spouse throughout the marriage and the length of marriage proves this.
It’s all very well backtracking through past events in order to exit a marriage with as much as possible but the law very clearly does not work that way.
