There is the Hindu practice of suttee which I presume has been outlawed- or has it? I suppose all religions/cultures have their methods of dealing with widows and divorcees. Wasn't the woman who was stoned- was it to death?-I forget- in "Zorba the Greek" a widow?//What if the husband has no legacy? Must the woman return to her father? America claims to have "gay divorcees" but many widows and divorcees simply retreat from the world unless she must protect her children and suffer dealing with dads in the neighborhood or at school when problems arise. Fot that, she wears an invisible "hat".
