If she’s raising the child, why shouldn’t she be entitled to half the household as part of the split and then additional resources for the kid?
Cause it isnt fair if she never paid for anything. Child support yes but the rest? No.

For church weddings yes, but according to the state anyone can divorce at any time. And that’s what matters.

Foreskin removal is not the same as removing the part of the female
Significantly different body parts
I don’t think you can equate them to be fair

Marriage is a legal contract that can only be dissolved by a judge for a handful of reasons. I will admit that now days they have become very relaxed in defending the contract and that has been my point all along but no matter they still have to list valid reasons for breaking the legal binding contract of marriage by the state.

No, in most states (the laws do vary slightly by place) there's a bunch of reasons, but most importantly there are some catch all reasons like "incompatibility", and every single state has some form of blanket no fault divorce. There are no laws that force people to be married that don't wish to be married. Either party can end a marriage at any time as a no fault divorce. In an at fault divorce, there are some other stipulations.
Judges just as they do now.

Who is to decide what a valid reason is?
