Many confounders here. Countries w high ratio tend to be misogynistic, and abort females. Divorce rate is a poor indicator for happiness.

I keep thinking that the best ratio for a society is 80 % women and 20 % males who are forbidden to work. They must hit the gym and are for the recreation of the amazons only

Doesn't the increase in fertility contradict the hypothesis you've previously mentioned that the decline in fertility would be due to higher male/female sex ratio?

I hate to be that guy, but all of these outcomes are more or less intuitively obvious

They seem counter-intuitive

Belyayev and Trut's work with foxes was a real eye-opener on how sexual selection relates to domestication. Media should spend more time covering how sexual selection works & less on CRISPER designed babies. And how wage & income prospects affect marriage and family formation.

I would expect that, on the other hand, societies with many males are more aggressive. On the one hand because of the amount of men itself, on the other hand because of their unsatisfied sexual drive. I'd guess that societies with a 60:40 women/men ratio are best for both sides.

From an evolutionary biologist perspective, I'd also like to remind that in earlier times many men died because of hunting and fighting, so the factual ratio of women in society was probably higher as well. (This argument might be a naturalist fallacy, though.)
