  • The only thing you have convinced me of is that you do not understand what moving the goalposts are.

    Again 3 relatives have divorced. No one faced legal penalties for doing so and it was approved by the state which means it is not illegal.

    The third definition is the relevant one here

    Legal -

  • Yes that’s called the legal framework for how it worked. I have three ancestors who received divorces in the USA in the 1800s (two had kids together, and one never had kids with the divorced spouse). The two that had kids and divorced were over her infidelity and the third was beaten by her drunk husband.

    I have no idea why you think it was illegal after the source tells you how it worked.
