Here’s a really interesting article from MSNBC.com. It lists down some of the oddest clauses that a real-life matrimonial lawyer has drafted for his clients.
1. First, there’s a couple who will not have sex - ever - unless “each party has lost a specified amount of weight”.
Sounds like nobody’s wrestling in bed unless 20 crutches are finished - and by that time - all you’ll ever want to do is sleep - so you’ll never have sex - ever! Lol.
2. Next, there are chore clauses which specify whether the husband or the wife is responsible for tasks like taking out the trash or feeding the dog.
Hmmm, is this something that I should include in my prenup or what?
3. There are also couples who impose a no-smoking ban in the house - despite the fact that one of them has asthma!
Isn’t this supposed to be a given? If your partner has asthma, why the hell would you smoke in the house? And do you even need to bother including such a clause in your prenup?
4. There are infidelity clauses made by wealthy husbands-to-be, which goes like this: “If I cheat on you and the marriage breaks up, you get X amount. If you cheat on me, you get a lot less. And forget the house.”
Two words: Double standard!
If I ever have to include such stupid things on my prenup, I would really think twice about marrying my guy. All that legal stuff just takes all the fun out of your marriage - and it seems as if you can’t trust each other - so why bother tying the knot?
