The study did mention that women who have been through a previous divorce are more likely to seek another divorce. I have many friends who have been married more than once. Possibly because I know a lot of "career women". I have a few friends who are in long-term marriages. They are regarded with awe and respect by the rest of us.

Some enterprising soul should do a survey on this website, as to how often people have been married and/or divorced.
