Europeans once had marriage contracts and so Muslims use this model even now. <br /><br />It is just weird and outlandish to a society that is indoctrinated into thinking that romance is paramount.<br /><br />However, soon, people in the West will be getting married for economic reasons again. This should lower their expectations of each other to more realistic levels.Claire Khawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11557436240917008429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-440967410082699790.post-35319677441812195332009-12-16T05:27:20.859+00:002009-12-16T05:27:20.859+00:00Andromeda,
Your idea of “Domestic Partnership” as...Andromeda,<br /><br />Your idea of “Domestic Partnership” as a new social, cultural and legal framework to rule on a male-female relationship for the raising of a family makes sense. However, I would say that you could get more feedback and we can be enlighted if you can issue and post two or three examples of such a concept; so we can check and talk about the details. I would suggest two: one for a monogamous partnership, another for a polygamous one. The more universal such examples are addressed the better. Millions of young and mature people in the world would take great advantage of that. Here in Mexico City, local lawmakers are about to put the final nail in the coffin of the very imperfect instution before known as marriage. One which has been systematically eroded by nonsense legislation, mislead public policies, consumerism, a feminist hate speech against men and masculine roles and the corrosive influence of media. Mexican representatives are about to legislate over homosexual marriage, something nobody cares, not even gays and lesbians.<br /><br />Yours,<br /><br />MCGMoshehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10582055527818608988noreply@blogger.com
