Married people: Has ANYONE ever asked to see your marriage license? [View All]

[SoCalDem]

It seems to me that the fundies are really getting revved up on this values kick again.. and trying to get back to their "good marriages" legislation. This piggybacks with the Roe v Wade issues, and the adoption issues..

Apparently in MO, there was still a law on the books that prohibited "cohabitation:..

Even back in the 60's, people "shacked up", but I never heard of anything being charged with anything.. It was just a shameful thing that families whispered about.

I have been married 36 years (on Mar 01) and I have NEVER EVER EVER been asked by ANYONE ..to see the marriage license...not for insurance..not for renting a house..not for ANYTHING..

We presented ourselves as husband & wife, and no one questioned a thing..

I have known people whom I THOUGHT were married, suddenly announce that they were GETTING married.. It never occurred to me to suspect that they were NOT married already..

We have sure turned into the nosiest people on earth if this starts to be a big deal..

anyone been asked??
