The Divorcinator

Unlike a homewrecker, The Divorcinator is not our for sport, or pure hedonism, but justice. They are out to heal the sick and right the wrongs, acting on a kind of vendetta, often sourced from their own wounds, set-backs, and tragedies. An anti-hero, a black sheep, a Robin Hood, or a Jedi, The Divorcinator urges the helpless to "Use the Divorce!" recognizing that freedom from oppression, tyranny, and abuse could otherwise not be achieved. The Divorcinator is not an opportunist but a liberator. To be called "homewrecker" is a slight, when the "home" in question is a house of cards in which the victim(s) feel trapped. The Divorcinator relieves and frees those who fully acknowledge the destructive nature of the endeavor. Such a "home" is a sham of a structure housing nefarious purposes contrary the accord of marriage, this effecting like a cancer everything that it touches. Oddly enough and in contrast to a philander, for example, a divorcinator is prompted by a sense of justice, morality, empathy, and shared responsibility. They bring pleasure to the miserable, wisdom to the occluded, and fortitude to the weary. A modern day folk hero cast as a kind of Cosmic Cowboy or a "man in black", they ride into town, defeat the bad guys, set the women and children free, then ride off into the sunset. It is a treacherous, dangerous, and tragic role, but a heroic one. It is a role that is not chosen but foisted upon them; it is chosen for them.
"My best friend was so sad and miserable in her marriage, I had to call in The Divorcinator! She could do so much better and now she's finally happy and free."
