[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] even though women are more likely to end up worse off financially after divorce than men, they also seem more willing to just take the risk of ending their marriages.  I am wondering also if women are just more decisive about this kind of thing than men?  [/quote]

I don't agree that women end up worse off. Otherwise they'd have to be stupid to initiate the majority of divorces.

That aside, yes women are more decisive. There's nobody more cold and ruthless than a woman who decides she's done with you. The only proviso is she is likely to hang on and make her husband's life miserable until she has a better option available.

Men have less ability to rationalize doing what they want if it will hurt the kids, whereas women will simply decide that what she wants to do is actually the best thing for the kids (even though it's not).

Lastly men realize that finding someone else after a divorce is going to be tough for them, while women think it will be just like when they were single in their 20s and men were falling all over themselves to get her attention. Often as not women are unpleasantly surprised that their appeal has declined.
