Citizens United, Dobbs et al were the first steps

Yes of course. There are already laws being proposed in various states to do away with no-fault divorce. They don’t want women to be able to leave their marriages.

That would simply ban one avenue albeit an extremely important one. The next step would be to allow only men to file followed by criminalization if women attempt to file for any reason or for leaving their husband for any reason.

That would clearly violate the equal protection clause.

Commander Barron has a nice ring to it, and JD Vance looks like one of the extras on HMT hoping to be a commander one day.

The result of that would be a lot less marriages. Women would chose to stay single or living in an open relationsship rather than getting married
