I think it's very easy to overstate how much those things are genuine differences in preference/ability. Allowing no-fault divorce dropped female suicide rates by 20%; were they happy in those marriages, or enduring them? Would they choose differently if offered the same opportunity?

Wasn't there also research showing that when women's financial independence improved, divorce rates went up? I wish I could find that source again.
