They represent anyone stuck in a marriage they don’t want
What on earth does that mean? Just because someone “doesn’t want” a marriage, does not entitle them to leave it. That is why Rabbeinu Gershom made a cherem to prevent men from divorcing their wife without consent. (Women were always prohibited from simply leaving a marriage because they didn’t “want” it anymore; they need a good halachic justification for a beis din to mandate a divorce.)
