I have a feeling that signing a whole document/ screaming to the four winds you will be having sex with this person, legally, did a lot for consent. But I understand, marital rape. Divorce is a thing though, and always should have been, but some cultures have been historically more brutally misogynistic than others…
It should’ve always been a thing and in certain places of the world it was. Don’t complain about your past cultural norms when I’m advocating for the mere social recognition/public announcement and acceptance of a couple of people of age and reason, which is what I’m talking about here. Women used to be witches to be burned at the stake in the West not too long ago, I’m not at all surprised that women are disregarded and abused still…

Yeah women have famously never had really really bad times with marriage
You know how the suicide rate among women plummeted when no-fault divorce became a thing? Total coincidence
