为什么呢?因为法国应有尽有。法国拥有可滑雪和徒步旅行的山脉,休闲海滩,城堡和人文气息浓厚的城市,还有世界上最多的米其林星级餐厅。

The Maldives 马尔代夫

Divorce

离婚率最高

Ironically, given that it's so popular with honeymooners, the Maldives has a divorce rate of 10.97, earning it recognition in the Guinness Book of Records. The UN even estimates that the average Maldivian woman, by the age of 30, has been divorced three times.

讽刺的是,马尔代夫是度蜜月胜地,可它却有10.97%的高离婚率,创造了吉尼斯世界纪录。联合国估计,平均每位马尔代夫女人在30岁前都离过三次婚。

Why is the rate so high in the Maldives? Various reasons have been cited. Perhaps the most compelling is that, as in other Muslim societies, where premarital sex is taboo, many marry young, but, under the country's mixed Sharia and common law system, they can then secure a divorce relatively easily when things don't work out. Others have blamed a lack of childcare facilities combined with a rise in women entering the workforce.

为什么马尔代夫的离婚率这么高?原因多种多样。最令人信服的理由是,马尔代夫和其他穆斯林国家一样,婚前性行为是禁忌。许多人结婚较早。但马尔代夫的伊斯兰教法和普通法律是并行的,在婚后感情不顺的情况下,他们离婚相对较容易。有些人则认为,高离婚率与托幼机构缺乏还有女性务工人数增加有关。
