Arrrgh...this definitely is making me scream
1. It's very sexist..rights of a 'wife'...definition of a 'wife';
2. I guess people choose to live in cos they don't want the law to interefere in their relationship in the first place...this will kind of frustrate the very 'essence' of live in...here I would like to quote Osho
'You are in love with a woman or a man and immediately you start thinking of getting married. Make it a legal contract. Why? How does the law come into love? The law comes into love because love is not there. It is only a fantasy, and you know the fantasy will disappear. Before it disappears settle down, before it disappears do something so it becomes impossible to separate.
In a better world, people will love, love immensely, but their love will remain a relating not a relationship. And I am not saying that their love will be only momentary. There is every possibility their love may go deeper than your love, may have a higher quality of intimacy, may have something more of poetry and more of godliness in it. And there is every possibility their love may last longer than your so-called relationship ever lasts. But it will not be guaranteed by the law, by the court, by the policeman. The guarantee will be inner. It will be a commitment from the heart, it will be a silent communion. '
Okay this is indeed the mother of all digressions buit just couldn't resist posting on this topic (though you explicitly mentioned 'Info'..n I sincerely appreciate the info).
