Discussing marriage with a divorce attorney might seem nonsensical, but they’re experienced in many aspects of the spousal relationship. They’ve heard all the reasons why relationships fall apart and seen how couples make amends. With their background, they can speak on preventing divorces or getting through them quickly with minimal collateral damage. With this in mind, consider what Brad Coates of Coates Frey Tanimoto & Gibson, AAL, LLLC in Honolulu, HI, has to say on the subject. 

The Differing Dating & Mating, Marriage & Divorce, Sex & Romantic Habits of Boomers & Millennials

On November 26, 2019, Brad Coates was a guest of Dr. Diana Wiley’s Love, Lust & Laughter. During the one-hour interview, he addressed the sexual revolution and the millennials’ struggle with overcoming the “hook-up culture” left in its wake.

He also talked about gray divorces, which refer to the separation of seniors. Such divorces are more common nowadays because divorce is no longer considered taboo. This rise in gray divorces has contributed to a stronger “remarriage market” as well, which means there are more available singles over 50 for those who want to foster a connection with someone else.
