Divorce Club in China

C’mon, join the club.

As reported by CNN, “Attitudes toward sex and marriage have relaxed since Communist China began market reforms in the late 1970s, opening the doors to a huge increase in adultery and divorce.” In fact, the number of divorces in China rose by 21% from 2003 to 2004. 

To top it off, now there’s a club for the broken hearted.  The so-called “divorce club” provides counseling services and organizes social gatherings and divorce celebrations.  Fittingly, the club was launched on Valentine’s Day.

This takes the Bitter Ball to a new level.
