Joseph, are you forgetting the earlier thread where it was established and proven the Butei Dinim have essentially gone divorce on demand… https://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/refusing-to-take-a-get … “In Israel and NY State, it doesn’t matter the reason for the wife wanting out of the marriage. The husband has to give a Get or else the consequences are quite severe. We’re no longer living in Biblical times. Nowadays, women have the right to demand a divorce. The Rebbeim and butei dinim will almost always back us up. It doesn’t matter if the husband is cruel or even at fault or if the wife just has no interest in the marriage continuing. What matters is the woman is not considered some man’s property anymore.”
