Stats aren't wrong but they also don't show the full picture. It's not like people don't wanna divorce in these developing countries but they simply can't for many reasons. These reasons can be religious, cultural or especially financial. Since, men are usually the bread winner in 3rd world countries, women are dependent on their men and don't file for divorce even if they really want to.

True, 80 % of divorces are requested by women. But when they depend economically on men they are less likely to divorce
