Dubai Forums Dubai Discussions Dubai General Chat

Divorce rates have been partly discussed in romance forum. Question raised: Why divorce rates are higher here in United Arab Emirates where in fact man can have four wives?

From the excerpt of Data Dubai regarding the article of what price a wedding. http://www.datadubai.com/dubai-culture/ ... a-wedding/

"Divorce rates stand at 25 per cent in Qatar and Saudi Arabia, 29 per cent in Kuwait and 40 per cent in the UAE. Anecdotal evidence suggests that modern Arabian women are less willing than their mothers’ generation to tolerate unhappy marriages and are initiating a growing proportion of divorces."

Well then this is so sad. Both of you have the same view.

Dubai, or UAE is continously improving and developing as a stronghold commercial/economical post of this region. Yet not all aspect of life is on the better side of the story.

It is always like this, anywhere. One aspect will improve, another form of life will be degrading. For instance technology advances but nature is suffering. Sad.
