Please read your own link, and the “ Marriage the First Ten years.” It says Women have a 50% chance of divorce in first ten years...

Overall, marriage is now under the 50% mark, but not 68-70% in first ten years, as I read your link!

I am not against marriage, I have a good one. And if CA were included it might raise the divorce rate. Read your own link article that says it is about 50% for women in first ten years.

My apologies, but Table 7 is quite clear that the percentages of surviving ten years is 68% for women and 70% for men. Indeed, on page 7 the narrative is clearer:

In 2006–2010, the probability of a first marriage lasting at least 10 years was 68% for women and 70% for men. Looking at 20 years, the probability that the first marriages of women and men will survive was 52% for women and 56% for men in 2006–2010. These levels are virtually identical to estimates based on vital statistics from the early 1970s.
