Explanation:
slowa zwiazanego z kalejdoskopem w tym kontekscie w niem. raczej sie nie spotyka.Stwierdzenie "sie wechslete (Ehe)Männer wie Handschuhe" oddaje moim zdaniem lekko ironizujace zabarwienie tego zdania.

sich die Klinke in die Hand geben


Explanation:
"gaben sich die (ihre) Männer die Klinke in die Hand".
czyli jeden po drugim w krotkich odstepach wchodzili w jej zycie, patrz link.
choc moze "wechseln wie Handschuhe" czy "wie Unterwäsche" brzmi nieco prosciej.
