M is getting married.

That's the thing. You drive a car with insurance, you get homeowners insurance... It just makes sense. Sure it's not romantic, but neither is getting robbed.

Should the unforeseeable happen, a prenup allows both parties to avoid the expense and emotional trauma of divorce proceedings. When a relative forms a living trust, do we resent him for daring to suggest that he will die in the near future?

Prenups are only half as likely to be used, but is that any reason to stigmatize them? How are they any less practical?

Actually, I would imagine that the existence of a prenup makes divorce less likely, since it removes the less wealthy partner's financial incentive to dissolve the marriage, and prevents him/her from using this to dominate the marriage.

If my gf told me she would want a pre-nup if we ever got married, would I react by chopping off her labia? Of course not. Why would anyone be angered?

OMG, my love isn't making them 100% blind to reality?!? I can't deal with such rejection!

If that was what was keeping my wife around, I'd divorce the cunt.

That's how I see it. It's just being real, times have changed.

It's human nature. Having your partner by the financial balls means that you can dictate the terms of the relationship.

You're all thinking like guys. Imagine that. Women have a lot more emotion involved in their decisions and a pre-nup is an emotionless vacuum which they percieve as having a negative attitude or misgivings about the matrimonial bond. Women don't like it, never have, never will.

Too fucking bad. They can go marry a chick then.

AMEN.

Y'know, I would read "The Gospel According to Chux." I would expect the Power Rangers to be in it somewhere.

The Seven Angels in Revalations would be Rangers, and they would pilot zords imo.

In other news, I've cemented a spot in hell.
