5. Divorce rates were at an all-time low during the 1950's and babies were poppin' out left and right. Why was this?

a.) Women could not obtain financial independence due to the limited job opportunities available to them
b.) Religious faith was still strong, keeping divorce socially taboo
c.) Because the man of the house said "No divorces!" and that was that. Sure, there were tears, but she dried her eyes after hubbie took her out to get a new pair of nylons
d.) Foldger's Instant Coffee (tastes like fresh perked!) allowed the wife to stop making shitty coffee and make her man happy, and thus allowing the marriage to be perfect.
