from their marriages as opposed to trying to work things out/deciding things cant be worked out.

I am seeing this as a positive/empowering thing for women in general, tho I am having a hard time deciding why I think this.

Anyone else seeing this as a trend, a good thing or not so good thing, a sign of the times etc?

I think women shouldn't take this kind of treatment lying down. It is cruel and unacceptable and I applaud them for moving on.
