Appalling!
My mother left my biological father, who abused her. I'm very proud of her and glad that she managed to do so. Later on she married the man who raised me and who I see as my father and love very much. If it were up to this guy, I would have grown up in a toxic, abusive household instead of a warm and loving one and my mum's life would have been hell.

A thoughtful, sensitive male Wisconsin legislator has proclaimed that he is against divorce under all circumstances — even spousal abuse. And he's got a message to all those ladies out there getting the shit beaten out of them by their husbands: remember the good times, back before things took an abusive turn, and maybe you'll fall in love again. There, isn't that better? Now, chin up, and go back out into that awful marriage of yours like a champ.
The obtuse anti divorce champion is Republican Don Pridemore. And this isn't the first time the Heartless Cheesehead has acted in a manner most unbecoming.
Remember earlier this month when another Wisconsin lawmaker thoughtfully suggested that maybe single parenthood should be considered a factor that may be indicative of child abuse? Pridemore was a co-sponsor of the bill that would've made it a crime for a person to dare try to raise a child on their own outside of the pillowy soft Magic Zone of marriage. But what about women who are being abused by their husbands? Shouldn't they have the option to extract themselves from an unhealthy situation? Nope, says Pridemore. And he's got some expert abused spouse marital advice as well: "If they can refind those reasons and get back to why they got married in the first place it might help."
So, the solution to divorce and spousal abuse is just remembering why you love your abuser? Did he learn about love, relationships, and psychology from tragic early country songs?
In addition to being a ladyhating idiot, Pridemore ignores the fact that men can be victims of physical or emotional abuse as well — and the fact that a poor quality marriage can be a contributing factor to child abuse. Let's get those bitches married, the way God intended! Come hell or high water or emergency room visits or a life lived in a state of utter terror!
Meanwhile Glenn Grothman, the "single parenthood is child abuse" bill's awful asshat of an author, has not only doubled down on the legislation, but he's attempted to out-cock himself by singling women out as the culprits of this non-plural parenthood pandemic. It's the women, you see, who have chosen to raise children by themselves over the course of the last 30 years. And that needs to change right now, by criminalizing single motherhood and legally bullying them into loveless and harmful marriages (and, oddly, penalizing people who dare get married to someone who is fated to die tragically at a young age, leaving them to raise the child or children by themselves).
On behalf of current and former residents of America's Dairyland, I implore State Senators Grothman and Pridemore to stop embarrassing themselves and all Wisconsinites with their nakedly misogynist antics. Statements like these from people who are supposed to be promoting public interest make Bucky Badger cry

obviously someone is not listening to thier holy books
conservative states have highest divorce rates
Why are now so many republican politicians coming out of the woodwork, with what they considering saving the U.S.
In fact they want to turn it in a form of theocracy.
The result of those crazy laws would be, domestic violence would go out the roof, childabuse the same, murders committed by family members out of despair being cought in a busive marriage.
However for the eye of the world they are a family.
Is that what they want!
For the eye of the world and their believe of Christian marriage, the American family values.
The reality behind closed doors a warzone, where everybody looses, nobody is a winner only victims.
Haven't they been paying attention?
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS OF MOTHER EARTH
I. Thou shall love and honor the Earth for it blesses thy life and governs thy survival.
II. Thou shall keep each day sacred to the Earth and celebrate the turning of its seasons.
III. Thou shall not hold thyself above other living things nor drive them to extinction.
IV. Thou shall give thanks for thy food, to the creatures and plants that nourish thee.
V. Thou shall educate thy offspring for multitudes of people are a blessing unto the Earth when we live in harmony.
VI. Thou shall not kill, nor waste Earth's riches upon weapons of war.
VII. Thou shall not pursue profit at the Earth's expense but strive to restore its damaged majesty.
VIII. Thou shall not hide from thyself or others the consequences of thy actions upon the Earth.
IX. Thou shall not steal from future generations by impoverishing or poisoning the Earth.
X. Thou shall consume material goods in moderation so all may share the Earth's bounty.
State funding will now be withdrawn from public colleges that teach future doctors about abortion techniques. This could really hurt the colleges that have OB/GYN degrees.
And this is only the most recent attempt at such absolutely absurd legislation. There is something very wrong going on in this country and it will only get far worse. And this story is but a small example of the craziness that this country seems to be moving toward. Logic, reason and compassion have no place here anymore. Not if the republicans have anything to say about it.
I'm assuming you're talking about emaculate conception here, right? If not we have quite a lot of penises to chop off. How about we start with yours, LOL.
