					<description><![CDATA[Errrm - Is Paul Vincenti assuming that &quot;married men&quot; only have children with their wives?  Has he never come across a case where a married man - despite there being no divorce - left his wife and children (or maybe not even that!) to form another family with another woman?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I am so glad Mr Vincenti wrote this letter and opened my naive woman&#039;s eyes.

Without his enlightened words, I would still be under the impression that women could support not only themselves but their kids too. I would still be labouring under the delusion that (almost) equal employment opportunities exist, that women are just as capable of desiring a legal recognition of the dissolution of their marriage and that marriages break down for reasons other than physical abuse or infidelity.

Imnalla kont int, Mr Vincenti. A true champion for the uterus-bearing citizens of our hallowed island.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Paul Vincenti had a lightbulb moment and wanted to share it with us, the dregs of society. We are all fifty-something males, on the verge of brandishing our first dentures,  waiting eagerly for divorce legislation to pounce on the first twenty-year-old woman in sight.

Equally I have visions of young Maltese women waiting for divorce to snatch Maltese men, middle-age spread and all, to go off and start new families.

I think not, Paul. It&#039;s all gone to their heads.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[What an unfortunate accident to be born in this country.  There&#039;s none like it.

Unfortunately, one is born only once and cannot learn from experience in the matter.  The inanities, the deceit, the deviousness, the thick-headedness, the absurdities, the extremism of the no-brigade are beyond belief.

I wish I could be here in fifty years&#039; time to hear the laughter of future generations when they learn of the no-faction antics.  How can those who propound such arguments be trusted with our vote?

If absurdity is what they can come up with in divorce, I cannot understand how they can suddenly switch to logic in other matters.

How can one blame someone who has lost faith in those whom he once trusted?  Einstein said that God does not play dice with the universe but some in Malta play dice with our lives.]]></description>
