According to the authors, this dynamic that many contemporary views consider to be a universal fact of life actually evolved only after the social changes introduced by the Industrial Revolution. In fact, any so-called "modern" shift to a more egalitarian sharing of family responsibilities represents more of a return to the more natural state of families than any "radical" or "new" approach.
Branden (1999) agrees, again tying in excessive adherence to typical male and female roles as a potential source of unnecessary strain, especially where marital partners may be better suited to a different arrangement or sharing of responsibilities. Likewise, Roberts (2007) also acknowledges the damage caused to marriage by dissatisfaction, especially among wives, as to the roles prescribed to them by society.
Myth # 4 - the Unstable African-American Family:
In their criticism of the notion that the African-American community reflects a lower level of marital and family stability than other cultures in the U.S., Schwartz and Scott (2000), seem to contradict themselves as well as to rely on a non-sequitur and the emotional power of the concept of racism. Specifically, while acknowledging that African-Americans, as a group, reflect less family stability than many other groups, the authors suggest that this conclusion ignores the complexities of the underlying causes, in conjunction with the suggestion that the perception amounts to racism. However, the causes are irrelevant to the correctness or incorrectness of the perception and the authors do not deny that, for whatever reasons, African-American communities seem to suffer somewhat more from the phenomenon at issue than other cultures.
Myth # 5 - the Idealized Nuclear Family of the 1950s:

These bans went on even after United Sates was founded. This is an example of endogamy whereby people were only allowed to get married
Marriage is a social institution with strong political overtones. The institution has created and enforced gender norms throughout every human society in all historical eras. Therefore, one of the reasons marriage works is because it is often strictly enforced with social codes. Marriage is only now starting to fall out of favor, and is being viewed more and more as an option rather than as an expectation. Yet there are
