Women Empowerment - A Cause for Increasing Divorce Rate in India

Good afternoon everyone,

First of all, we need to understand the difference between women empowerment and divorce, both are completely different. According to my point of view, increasing the divorce rate in India is not related to women empowerment.

Hello, friends, I am Sumit Kushwaha,

Here we are going to discuss the topic Women Empowerment means encouraging the power of women in our country. As you know some Women have done well in many fields such as in sports Shaina Nehwal and also in Bollywood sector Preity Zinta. So we should give all the opportunity to women in all fields.

Women's Empowerment refers to uplifting women in every aspect such as economic, political, and social. In recent times, not a single woman neglects her needs.

Like men, women also want to be benefitted by every decision they make. I want to make it clear that I agree that divorce rates are going up because of women's empowerment. Women now understand their needs and want.

She wants to be happy with every decision she makes. And if the decision doesn't satisfy her, she have the audacity to back off from the decision. A marriage is a decision made by both man and a woman. Likewise, a woman can file for divorce if her present-day needs are not met. In earlier times women constricted themselves by the norms of society and the rules made by their In-laws included a lot of sacrifices and holding back tears because they didn't have any personal identity rather than someone's daughter or someone's wife. But now they are independent and make their own money and have a safe living without the need of a men to look after them. Now that women can speak for themselves and will not tolerate any injustice, the divorce rate is increasing.

THANKS.

Every women has a rights and freedom. They are also god's creatures. Men and women are human beings. My point is to divorce occurs because of the arrogance, ego, not understandable and compliment. In the world all are equal. They should achieve anything.

Women empowerment are not reason for the divorce. Divorce depends not only women. If women have a empower, they would like to bold. They can follow cultures and traditions of family backgrounds.

I don't think so that the women empowerment is the cause for increasing divorce rate in India. India is a democratic country. So it depends upon the thinking of the people weather the are living to gather or just split because in other countries like USA divorce is just the common thing.

Women were dominated from ancient time. Patriarchy reached every corner of our society. Every religion have there own patriarchal outlook and features. Women have there own identity and rational outlook, they also want liberty of thought. But due several social corruption and ignorant behavior of men lead to women down gradation in every field. In this modern world, women education build consciousness of liberty, equality and men domination. The question arrived what women should do when her husband beat or she become a victim of extreme domestic violence. Divorce is only solution for womens to abolish marriage. But divorce lead social stress, aloneness, family pressure etc. This also lead to phobia and women have to fight for there better life. Divorce is easy in modern society but in traditional it is partially impossible.

“Women empowerment” is a word that gave me identity by standing out and speaking out loudly about all the abuses faced in my marriage. This word gave me courage and a mission to act now before it's too late.

Yes, it's a reason for my divorce but positively as all my dreams, bucket lists, likes and dislikes have come alive again as if I have a second chance to live.

This empowerment gives me strength to stand up for a common goal of equality and I am ready to give up on all the luxuries, comfort and relationships for my rights, freedom and justice.

If I can't justify or correct the wrong things happening to me then the reason of my birth is unknown, the purpose of my life is shadowed and under such a toxic marriage you will never be able to breathe fresh air if you don't dare to leave, a leap of faith, trusting the universe to provide better because we women deserve better treatment and relationships. I do strongly believe the first and most difficult step of leaving is on us rest is taken care of by the universe.

We as united can give courage and power to more women around who are facing such abuses, violence and torture every day just for the sake of keeping their families together.

My kids will be proud one day that I left all the luxuries of life, fighting the orthodox society around just for my self-respect.

Money can be earned but lost respect cannot come back.

You cannot heal where you were hurt.

Trust and believe you deserve what your heart craves!

Women's Empowerment refers to uplifting women in every aspect such as economic, political, and social.
Women empowerment is not a cause for increasing divorce rate in India. There was a time when women were told that marriage is sacred and their ultimate goal was to serve her husband, in-laws and her children.
Women were not allowed to dream anything beyond this. They dedicated their entire lives to look after their family. Women had no freedom to complain even if they were subjected to domestic violence or harassment or any other form of violence from in-laws.
They respected their husband's wishes even though they didn't like them. Due to lack of education, many women didn't know their rights. Even if women were educated they didn't have the financial independence to look after their children after divorcing their spouses. As a result, many women had to compromise in their marriage
This has slowly changed over the course of years with women being educated and gaining financial independence. Women can approach the court in case of domestic violence, harassment or any pressure from in-laws regarding dowry for the justice to be served.
Divorce rates are high in urban areas. Divorces could happen among the spouses due to 'n' number of reasons
- Infidelity (could be a wife or a husband).
-Not a happy marriage.
-Domestic violence.
-Pressure from in-laws regarding dowry.
-Divorce with mutual consent
- To make their own choices and decisions.

- Have equal rights to participate in social, religious and public activities.

- Have equal social status in the society.

- Have equal rights for social and economic justice.

- Determine financial and economic choices.

- Get equal opportunity for education.

- Get equal employment opportunity without any gender bias.

- Get safe and comfortable working environment
Women Empowering give her equal status with respect to me
Thank you .....

Hello Everyone,

Here, we are discussing the topic of Women's empowerment which means encouraging the power of women in our country, as everyone knows even in the 21st century gender inequality exists among most families.

So, that will always neglect girls in all fields so I just want to say that the empowerment of women is not only the reason behind the divorce rate increasing in India. There is also more than one reason for women's empowerment:

Women are not getting the opportunity to make any decisions in the family.

Women are mistreated by their in-laws because of the dowry and many other reasons like having only girl children etc.

Even after working more than men, they don't get appreciation from society. They do not have equal opportunities in every field because of society's thinking.

Some men are beating the women even if they are working at home as well as outside.

But this happened because of uneducated ratio is higher in women so I want to conclude that if the women do study then they know the value of self-respect and they will start before their decisions as well and also get the knowledge of the rights they have overall so government also take initiatives like 'beti bchao beti pdhao' and many others so that women can empower themselves and they can live their life without sacrificing their all dreams for the family.
