There is no 50% divorce rate, but it used to approach that 40 years ago.

Is this actually true? I've heard it repeated over and over again, but is there any real evidence that a larger percentage people in "marriages of reason" felt dissatisfied when compared to marriages today? Considering the 50% divorce rate I'd be extremely surprised if the dissatisfaction rate of matches made in days gone by was much higher.
