Indians (and Bengalis and Pakistanis) don&#x27;t get divorced for three major reasons: 1) it&#x27;s culturally discouraged, and even severe problems get swept under the rug so people can save face; 2) with a workforce participation rate under 30%, most Indian women have little choice but to stay in their marriages; 3) the stigma of divorce makes it very difficult for divorced women to get into other relationships.
