divorce tales.
In one case, size really mattered.
According to the local press, a 52-year-old Taiwanese woman was recently granted a divorce from her 55-year-old husband of four years because his penis -- which reportedly measured in at 5 centimeters -- was too small.
It wasn't until their wedding night that the woman learned of the issue.
"He's also impotent and unable to fulfill his responsibility as a husband," she said. "We quarreled the whole night and I asked him to seek treatment."
The newlyweds separated the next day. The former wife claims they were never able to successfully have sex at any point during their marriage, despite several attempts.
This is not the first time poor sexual performance has been grounds for divorce. In 2008, a Russian man was divorced by his wife after his penis extension broke off during sex.

Tattle Tale. What would you do if your pet bird started to say things like "divorce" or "be patient"? In June 2001, those phrases proved to one woman that her husband had been unfaithful -- and that was grounds for divorce.
