Exactly.

I don't remember any distinct bias towards first marriages, other than the statistic that later marriages have an even greater chance of ending in divorce.

And as robx pointed out, that's because people who end up remarrying often do not work on the issues that led prior marriages to end in the first place. And because you're conditioned to accept that a marriage can "just not work out", there's less resistance to starting over for a third (or fourth) time.
