Husband must pay for sexless marriage

[UnicronParticipant 752]

It sounds like the opening line of a joke: French wife sues her ex-husband over his refusal to, uh, perform during their marriage. But the widely publicized lack-of-passion lawsuit raises the question: How much is marital sex worth?

The 51-year-old ex-husband was ordered to pay the equivalent of about $15,000 by a judge in Nice, southern France, for not getting busy in the bedroom with his 47-year-old spouse during the 21 years of their marriage, according to the British paper The Telegraph. The couple had divorced and then the wife sued for compensation for the long sex drought. However, suing a spouse, or an ex-spouse, for monetary damages is rare, and success rarer still. In 2004, a Spanish man tried it when his wife shut him out for five days and a judge tossed the case.

Even so, sex, or rather than absence of sex, finds its way into lawsuits all the time.

In the U.S. denial of sex is not usually spelled out in divorce codes, though “mental cruelty” fits the bill. Oklahoma has a provision for “gross neglect of duty.” In some states, plaintiffs can charge the defendant spouse with “impotence” and collect settlements. Other states specify that the impotence had to have been present before the marriage, a provision that harkens back to the days when people pretended not to have had sex before the wedding day.

More often, third parties are sued for causing “loss of consortium.” That does not always mean just sex — it could mean hubby can no longer mow the lawn — but generally that’s just a nice way of saying a spouse longer performs up to par, or at all.

In New York State, a wife sued a local town after her husband shattered his elbow tripping on a damaged sidewalk. She won $85,000 for loss of consortium, which sort of makes you wonder just how integral his elbow was to their “consortium.”

And, of course, there is the old “alienation of affection” lawsuit against a third party, such as a mistress. If a husband or wife stops having sex with the spouse because he or she is all worn out from lunchtime at the Motel 6, the spouse might collect loss of consortium damages from the paramour.

A big tobacco company was even sued for loss of consortium. In 1997, an Indiana woman named Norma Doerner sued Swisher International because her husband had smoked the company’s cigars and got tongue cancer. He eventually died of it and she sued. She lost the case, mainly because she’d divorced him six years earlier.

Exactly why the French fellow stopped having sex with his wife for over two decades remains unexplained — he claimed he was too tired and had health problems, the paper reported. But the judge only valued his services at about $714 per year, so maybe his wife wasn’t missing much.

Marriage is the process of finding out what kind of man your wife would have preferred.

Don’t f~~~ her, you’re an asshole who should pay.

She cheats and won’t f~~~ YOU, you’re an asshole who should pay.

And if you thought that was the punchline….. grab onto something, because you could have divorced her 30 years AGO, and the greedy, selfish, useless, fat, dried-up old c~~~ will STILL come after your cash as if she has a “right” to it.

DENY THEM THAT.

If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.

I know it was rhetorical but my Mantenna starts beeping when I even sense a fragment of this line of thought. “He won’t f~~~ me. He owes me a house….. but I will f~~~ his friend and he STILL owes me a house.”

We keep seeing all these articles asking: “Why aren’t men getting married any more?”

The real question is: “Why are some men still stupid enough to get married?”

Seriously, what the f~~~ are they thinking?

Refuse to marry, and you can f~~~ for free. Or you can choose not to f~~~ her, and it’s still free.

Because you’re still free.

F~~~ marriage. Be free.

Consider them denied. 30 f~~~ing years later. Remember Gentlemen: MGTOW all day, every day.

Learn from the past, Control the present, and you will know the Future.

What if it is because of a medical condition like ED?

Lifes a bitch,but you don't have to marry one!

Did she ever ask for sex? My guess is no. They never ask or initiate it.

Love is just alimony waiting to happen. Visit mgtow.com.

Ah the infamous Frenchies! The ultimate epitome of how a man should be….for women.

No offense to French guys over here.

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

“I divorced him six years ago and he’s dead, but someone somewhere still owes me!!!”

That’s been going through my head all day. Every newspaper I pass, every site I click on (admittedly, mainly here) is just one more reason to never marry. I want to shout it from the rooftops.

I saw in Dubai, a wife sued husband for $12 million for depriving her of sex.

So if you are married and your wife gains 500lb killing your sex life, she can sue you into oblivion. And then she can divorce you and sue you again.

I loved the Doerner case- unbelievable.

Well if someone had sex with his wife ,he will be persecuted for marital rape..and if he had not,it comes under mental cruelty….lol,

Trick question. Women are never satisfied.
