Women seeking legal aid in divorce top men in Armenia
18:34 - 06.04.13
Ninety percent of the Armenian citizens turning to a lawyer for
divorce are women, according to a legal consulting firm chief.
At a news conference on Saturday, the director of the Right Protect
company, Garik Sahakyan, said the female clients seeking a legal aid
want to get divorced not because of being socially insecure, but
because they feel betrayed and ignored by their spouses.
As for the males, the lawyer said their number is lower - about 5%-7%
- most citing the lack of love as a cause for divorce. `Whereas women
say they forgave a husband betraying them for three or four times, but
realized eventually he won't change,' he said.
Asked whether women or man betray their spouses more, Sahakyan noted
that the rate is almost equal despite the existing opinion adultery is
more widely practiced by males.
The lawyer said further that only 1% of their clients appear to be
victims of physical violence. `One out of 100 clients turning to us
would say he or she has been subjected to physical violence,' said he,
adding that women predominantly want a little bit attention.
`An Armenian woman does not demand much in practice. Faithfulness,
work and love are all she wants. What Armenia lacks today is the not
males as physical beings, but the real Armenian man,' Sahakyan added.
