This is actually real!
In India, when two people of legal age, 18 for a woman and 21 for a man, ‘indulge in sexual gratification’ this should be seen as a 'an act of total commitment' and marriage by law, a judge at Madras High Court said.
The court said that the registering of a marriage as well as a wedding ceremony were only formalities to gain society’s approval.
18 for the girl and 21 for the guy, seriously?
It also said that once two people have sex this ‘becomes a total commitment with adherence to all consequences that may follow’, including needing a decree of divorce should they want to sleep with someone else.
In addition, should either of the two wish to register the ‘marriage’ they can have their marital status declared by a Family Court as long as they can supply proof of a sexual relationship.
I wonder what those proofs will be? Pictures or what? Any ideas?
Once declared by the court, the person can be established as the other’s spouse – whether the other party approves or not. ‘Legal rights applicable to normal wedded couples will also be applicable to couples who have had sexual relationships which are established,’ the court declared in their ruling obtained by The Hindu.
I laugh in Yoruba, so if a girl goes to the court with a proof that a guy slept with her, they will declare them as a couple whether he agrees or not, that s what the article says o.
The verdict was as a result of a spousal maintenance case where a lower court had ruled that a woman was not entitled to maintenance from the father of her two children as there was no proof of their marriage.
You can read the rest on dailymail.
Well, according to the bible, sex is the seal to the covenant of marriage so me thinks the Indians are only acting the WORD.
If they try this in Nigeria, a lot of guys will end up being polygamists, I can tell you that now.
