I don’t really understand why divorced would be separate from single and looking (or single and not looking, if the marriage was especially traumatizing). Also, one could be married and looking if one is polyamorous.
It carries, or rather did carry quite a bit of information, though I doubt anyone on LW would have bothered to use it so it was superfluous.
But honestly I’m not sure why “married” is a separate option according to these criteria.
From what I have observed, a more informative question if one wanted to meaningfully sort participants here would be:
Do you have children?
a) No, and I do not expect to in future.b) No, but I might like to in future.c) Yes.
Excellent suggestion.
