Social stigma surrounding divorce?

Social stigma surrounding divorce is the negative perception and disapproval that still exists in some societies towards people who have ended their marriages. This stigma is often associated with the cultural and religious beliefs that hold marriage as a sacred and lifelong commitment. Divorce is often considered a failure, and those who have gone through it may experience judgment, shame, and even ostracism from their communities. Such attitudes can prevent individuals from seeking help or support, and can lead to feelings of isolation and low self-esteem. However, there has been a shift in many societies towards greater acceptance and understanding of divorce, recognizing that it is sometimes necessary for the well-being of individuals and families.
