Divorce is far better for children than living with an abusive male who will oppress the family and instill a sense of inferiority in female children. Lesbian couples are safer for children than either het couples or gay male couples, simply because it tends to be males who are more likely to sexually abuse children. Statistics bear this out.

I think it better if parents can keep a marriage together but not if it is too toxic--'the marriage survived but the people did not' is not role-modeling a healthy marriage for the children.

Ah, there's nothing like a bit of shameless misandry! Oh those oppressive and abusive males who ruin everything! Yeah, whatever. But I will point out that males who are not biologically related to the children in the household are the biggest sexual abuse threat to them. That's a relevant detail in our revolving spouses world. As to lesbian couples, they may be "safer" for children from a sexual abuse perspective, but in 2010 and 2013 the US CDC determined that after bisexual women, their category is next for highest incidence of intimate partner domestic violence. Above that of heterosexual women. Interestingly enough, the latest CDC National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey conducted in 2017 has summaries for most of the data collected, but the Victimization by Sexual Orientation summary is still "coming soon!" in 2023. Here's the 2010 version: https://www.cdc.gov/violenceprevention/pdf/nisvs_sofindings.pdf

There is no such thing as misandry, Mr. Weenie. Men do perform the majority of sexual assaults and violence toward women and children.
