Marrying a Man with “Baggage”
Cultural views of previously married men include the assumption that they bring ex-wives and children as “baggage” into subsequent marriages.

Implications for women contemplating marriage to a previously married man include…

Differences in respondent characteristics and the type of item were considered. These data indicate the serious pr…
