Several women have made the argument that when couples get married, they should entrust everything to God, therefore the prenup should be avoided, because a prenup shows a lack of trust in each other, so there must not be real love involved. If that is their argument, then why do they demand a State marriage license, if they entrust their marriage to God, and they feel they and their husbands should try to live up to an ideal spousal trust? Why do they feel they need legal validation from the State?
I think you might be jumping to conclusions when you say women demand a state marriage license. I certainly didn't. Honestly I didn't even think twice about it and neither did my husband. It's just what you do. It's what our priest told us we needed to do and that was end of it.
Maybe I'm just that ignorant, but I don't think the majority of women here even considered the idea of a state marriage license being a weapon in their favor and therefore demanded one. I bet the question didn't even come up between a lot, if not most couples here when they were preparing for marriage.
Bad women aren't under every rock! Just half of them.... lol.
