Any country or home cannot be run only by finance minister (earning wife). It is necessary of home minister (house wife). Working man & working women for more and more money is imbalanced and disturb natural life of human. Just money is not everything in the world.

In my opinion, women empowerment is something that has been initiated to let the women know about their rights. In a way it has given them strength to act against the Violence's upon women in society. Relationship and women empowerment are two different things. Relationships are based on understanding and two people respecting each other.

Hence empowerment of women cannot be a reason behind the number of increasing divorces. If a husband is proud of his wife who is working as well as maintaining household work at the same time, then the serenity of the relationship will always be maintained.

Women empowerment is not responsible for divorce. There are no of reasons which leads to divorce. Mutual understanding and love between the couple is important due to lack of mutual understanding the divorce occur. But it is not because of empowerment.

If both husband and wife is earning then it is beneficial as now days inflation increases. As well as why we should we waste her knowledge no doubt if she is earning equal or more than husband it creates some issues but it depends upon love and understanding. Empowerment is not the reason or solution.

I think divorces are occurring because women could choose between right and wrong. If we think empowerment is the reason for it, then it is absolutely wrong. Women are getting education, they could react the situation which makes them slaves. They have got that much of strength because of the education and civil rights.

They are doing what is best for them like we everybody do. Empowerment is not the reason for divorces but it is the proof of nation that India got biggest democracy and women are the major part of it.

Well now that much more women today are very high maintenance, independent, selfish, spoiled, and very greedy, many of them are the real cause of most divorces especially in America.

After marriage the word using by modern brides like My career, My Job, My surname, My family, My education the word 'MY (Mera) ' is like sand, and the sand never dissolve in water (husband/in-laws) to make water (Solution) as sweet drink. And the sand will be seems separately on water whole life.

After marriage the word using by bride like our house, our children, our family, our reputation, our happiness & Darrow the word OUR (Hamare) is like sugar, and the sugar always dissolve in water (husband/in-laws) to make water (solution) as sweet drink (sweet stable relationship) And the sugar made water sweet by dissolved her own identity in water but her taste always remains forever in water.

Be the 'SUGAR' & not 'SAND'. Any girl/bride has so many own issues then she should not be married and she should remain unmarried for her so called freedom, etc. and a man or in-laws should not be cheated by this-that reasons made by bride.

I think women empowerment is not the reason behind the divorce. Women empowerment helps women to come forward to occupy their rights, their status in the society rather than being silent and tolerating all types of domestic violence.

I think now a days the divorces are occurring because both the man and woman have become impatient towards each other. If both the partners adjust equally in maintaining their relationship and be loyal to each other forgetting about their own ego than only these types of problems can be solved.

Greater societal acceptance of divorcees in urban areas and also a gradual acceptance of divorced daughters by families (not in rural areas) because families have started to believe that perhaps their daughter can have a life after marriage and without a husband.

The anonymity of big cities has helped divorced people avoid the glare of judgmental friends and relatives. Financial freedom to walk away from an abusive relationships. The sanctity of marriage is taking a beating. People's attitudes towards marriage itself are Chandigarh as a result they do not work hard at it as before.

More DRINKS couples(double income no kids) who are not held back by the fear of how the divorce will impact children.

Stress of modern life. Today's working environment has changed drastically. The economy having opened up, most companies are facing intense competition and this leads to tremendous pressure on employees. Working late, 6 days a week, without holidays and with a boss who breathes down your throat can create a lot of frustration and tension. This can destroy a marriage, whether it's just one partner working, or both.

Loneliness. Nuclear families have meant loneliness for the non-working partner, compounded by moving away from familiar environments. This can result in estrangement, affairs.

My dear citizens indeed it has been spoken vastly about the increasing rates of divorces across the country like India. As a well wisher of the country I request couples not to get influenced with what you see in Media, Television & Newspapers. They are are all spoiling the couples for wasted interest.

Divorce is not the solution for arguments in relationships you gonna sort it out we're not animals who eat & sleep with anyone we're Human Beings who live for Respect, Values & Truth-fullness. Yes indeed the logic of Americans was to introduce women empowerment for the gains of their companies.

So that when a women comes out for working she tends to attract & spend more on sexuality, Escorting, Clothing & Fast Foods etc. They know it India is still culturally stronger and its the only way to exploit the people.

Women's are being wanted exploited by many western companies at workplace by giving more salaries, asked to wear sexy, short cloths and then writing it in the Newspapers about salary rise etc. To create an inflation and spoil the country. Couples you need to be stronger than an iron and live by relationships, Lord Krishna (God) has created Women to support Men in all his endeavors not to overtake.

As per my concern I think that it is not justified that divorce increasing due to women empowerment. It depends on the both partners their understandings, and their trusts. If we force on women empowerment then the women can choose her life partner and I think that she can choose best person that their parents could then it might not leads to more divorce's.
