Well, compare South Korea to the USA. Korean American women are more fertile than Korean Korean women. Women from Iran are more fertile in Germany, than in Iran.

I think this is information.

I can explain this with economic, cultural and transitional reasons rather than only their degree of legal rights.

I think those are all related things. SK women are miserable under their yoke and retaliate by refusing to breed.

Possibly. From what I know of SK, the women have a solid chokehold on the family

That's common, under strict patriarchy. He's just a visitor in the home and a paycheck.
Like the way ME guys often lounge around outside because the women basically throw them out of the house every day, and they don't go back until dinner.

Often don't see the sort of affectionate, companionate marriages, that we are more used to, because of the elevated status of Christian women and the more temperate view of patriarchy that it brought.

if you read even just Genesis, the wives had very crucial roles in many of the adventures of the family of Adam... Sarah, for example, repeatedly involved in some funny gambits with people of a city they were visiting because she was so pretty, so, twice she is pretending to be his sister, and as you observe, under patriarchy the sister is in a different status to the wife

Abraham was probably even the case of the first emergence of a more equal concept of the family roles, and that even predates christianity and influenced the jewish family structure as well

what happens in islam and fundamentalist judaism are both regressions, and idk what their religion is called in korea but in Japan, Shinto is also similarly patriarchal, and has a lot of those characteristics you also see in korean and middle eastern islamic family culture...

My general opinion is that US divorce law should be more egalitarian, but that you can't legislate wifely submission into existence. Either she trusts him, or she doesn't.

That's why we need to bring back common law marriage. Let the partners have the final say in how their relationship will be.

I agree with this, that you can't legislate submission, however in my experience, submission and/or fidelity is heavily dependent on the predominant patterns of legal decisions in the court system and their respect for property.
