| Prenuptial - maintaining physique - is it reasonable? Posted: 11/13/2008 11:13:22 AM | Would it be fair to include in a prenuptial that your spouse has to maintain physical health and physique? Is it unreasonable to request in a prenuptial that your wife stays within a certain weight range, and if not, it is grounds for divorce without having to give her half of everything?
Not only is it fair, I think it is imperative to have this written into the business document of our Love. I expect my little ballerina to have the body of a goddess, the sweet skin of a young lady, with an absolutely perfect Body Mass Index....for the rest of our lives.
Now, even though I may have gained a ton of weight, and my white belly is flopping over my thrift shop slacks, and, I am combing over the three strands of hair on the left side of my head to cover the top,(hey, you can't even notice, right?). When she brings me my Hungry Man TV dinner at night whilst I am scratching my man nuts and fiddling with the remote.....she should always look like a young Cindy Crawford. It's only fair.....am I right, or am I right guys? Or, no way, she's not gettin half of the 2800 bucks that I managed to squirrel away after the layoff at the plant 6 years ago.
Yeh, this stuff is sometimes waaaay better than TV....hahaha

| Prenuptial - maintaining physique - is it reasonable? Posted: 11/13/2008 4:54:41 PM | | HELL NO!!!! That's like saying "is death and taxes reasonable". Geez, if one's going to shove a pre-nup in front of my face, then I have the right to include clauses that exclude: gray hair; wrinkles; farting; burping; or heaven forbid, drooling. Oh, can't forget those clauses if I suffer a horrible disease or injury. I can only imagine what the cost of the pre-nup would be. In any case, a pre-nup requiring maintaining physique tells me the relationship, much less the person drafting it up, isn't worth my heart. | |

| Prenuptial - maintaining physique - is it reasonable? Posted: 11/14/2008 6:38:49 AM | hmm... I can just picture it ...
"Gee, honey ... I realize that you just gave birth to our 3rd child 7 months ago, and I realize that you're very tired, but ... remember that contract you signed? Well, if you put on 2 more pounds, I just have to divorce you."
But, yes ... I do sympathize with people whose spouse does gain an excessive amount of weight shortly after getting married ... when it is truly a case of laziness. Likewise if a woman marries a "buff" guy who loses all his muscle and gets too skinny... I can understand that must all be very disappointing. Disappointing, but grounds for divorce?? | |

^^This excuse is getting old, too. It's interesting how most women in the developing world have more babies but a lesser incidence of obesity and overweight than women in the developed world. Even with fewer resources and a less eclectic diet, they manage to avoid permanent weight gain from pregnancy and childbirth.
Here's what fit people should tell their partners: "Look, we both love each other. We really shouldn't need some kind of written agreement or pre-nup to maintain ourselves physically in this relationship. Let's just make a commitment to do it! Let's work out/train together and support each other in keeping fit!"
Then, if both the man and woman are worth their salt, they will fùckin' DO it. It should be that simple.  | |

That is not love at all. best thing in a situation like that is not marry. I know if a man ever said such a thing to me it would be bye bye ***hole. By the way, you men get fat fat and fatter after marriage so should women ask for a prenuptual agreement that you wont gain any weight either? do women have to stay beautiufl and slim while the man goes to hell in a handbasket? get real | |

Actually, most women in the developing world are not starving. But, they also tend not to stuff their faces with every kind of processed food imaginable. The developing world is pretty much everything outside of the U.S.A., Canada, Oceania, and Western Europe. It's a major overgeneralization to say they are all starving.
Most women world-wide are not starving, but they also aren't eating themselves up to the 250+ lb. range. The advice to married couples in the West would be to stop stuffing your faces!! No pre-nup needed! | |

| Prenuptial - maintaining physique - is it reasonable? Posted: 11/14/2008 6:22:41 PM | umm... correct me if I'm wrong, but don't most women in the developing world HAVE to breastfeed...some for extended periods of time? Breastfeeding also helps to keep the weight off...
spitfire ... why don't you do an in-depth study on excessive weight gain? It may disappoint you, but you may learn ...as has been mentioned over and over, there ARE other factors involved ... other than "one stuffing her/his face". | |

Only if you're willing to sign the same piece of paper, OP, that allows the woman you marry to be able to replace you with Sven the ab-ribbed poolboy, if you don't hold up your own end of the bargain.  | |

| Prenuptial - maintaining physique - is it reasonable? Posted: 11/14/2008 8:38:46 PM | | Op, can't say that I have run across you before in the forums. I have read some shallow shite on here before, but you take the cake. What you suggest shouldn't enter your mind if you truly love somebody. I have a feeling your going to grow old alone. But I would love to be a fly on the wall if and when you ever present the special lady with an pre nump with that in it. Good luck to you your going to need it. | |

| Prenuptial - maintaining physique - is it reasonable? Posted: 11/15/2008 5:04:29 AM | | FFS people, not all big women are unhappy being big. Some of us just like to eat. Its not a f*cking crime! Sure, ya gotta diet a lil' before you get married but once thems weddin bells have rung, I be off for a big mac attack. | |

Breastfeeding is a very good idea for a number of reasons----keeping the weight off is just one of them. That's not the topic of this thread, though. No one needs to breastfeed in order to maintain basic fitness. You shouldn't need a pre-nup, either. 
spitfire ... why don't you do an in-depth study on excessive weight gain?
In my former career, I was a certified fitness trainer, so I already have studied weight-gain quite a bit. | |

| Prenuptial - maintaining physique - is it reasonable? Posted: 11/15/2008 8:38:15 AM | I think it makes a lot of sense. And you should also sign a prenup committing to not losing hair on your head while growing hair on your back, you will maintain your six-pack abs (I'm certain that you're currently sporting a perfect, Calvin Kline-ad physique). You will also not allow hair to grow from your nose or ears, your toenails will not get yellow and crusty, you will not go through a male mid-life crisis in which you treat her like dirt while buying a ridiculously expensive red convertible sports car, nor will you ogle, flirt with or have affairs with women young enough to be your daughter/granddaughter. You will commit to picking up after yourself and to doing 50% of the work around the house without complaint or expectation of praise.
On second thought staying single might be a better option for you. | |

| Prenuptial - maintaining physique - is it reasonable? Posted: 11/15/2008 9:07:46 AM | What may happen if it is the other way round?? I mean if you put on weight. On top of that where is love in a realtionship stablished like this??.It seems that from the start it would be a realtioship condemed to failure.Just my thoughts mariacba | |

Well I can tell you that I have lived off burgers from burger king for last prob 15 yrs and when i say lived off them I mean i literallly ate there everyday ..breakfast and sometimes lunch and I have never weighted over 120 lbs. Never been fat a day in my life. When I was working at a previous job, I ate burger king ..breakfast , lunch and after wrok on way home. thats 3 times a day evryday. Again nevr weighted over 120 lbs.So I think eating is not all the factors that cause weight gain. Maybe you shouild study some more. | |

| Prenuptial - maintaining physique - is it reasonable? Posted: 11/15/2008 10:29:58 AM | The bottom line is that men and women should encourage each other in a strong relationship to remain healthy and fit. Basic common sense. Running or training together allow a couple to have quality time together and will help them to stay fit.
Use the pre-nup for money issues! Maintaining fitness, for both partners, should not be that hard. | |

| Prenuptial - maintaining physique - is it reasonable? Posted: 11/21/2008 3:16:01 PM | "Seriously though, when a woman gets into an accident and becomes disfigured, most men leave the marriage. Women on the other hand stay around and help their husband and remain with him even if he's disfigured and crippled. Men just don't. That's just the horrific reality of it. So it's something we all need to consider. "
if you really think that way then everyone else is right. they are right. you should not get married.
I worked in a nursing home and the kind of husband i would want the second time around was just like some of the old guys who would come every day to see their wives. every day. and these women didn't even know who they were because they have alzheimers disease. you should watch that movie the notebook and then start a relationship with someone. not before. you are just tooo cruel to imagine. | |

LOL.. and you haven't seen many married MEN that let themselves go?
you haven't been lookign very hard then..I'd say IMO there are more men 'guilty' of thsi, than women..
"facilitate".??

| Prenuptial - maintaining physique - is it reasonable? Posted: 11/28/2008 3:14:29 PM | Spitfire~ Do you beep when you back up? How about if you have all the babies and let us go out and act like children instead? When you said fitness trainer...my first thought was how superficial you must be. Stuffing anything doesn't guarantee weight gain....by the way...women in other countries don't have access to anything processed...you are so far losing your footing on credible info...and who would be watching the kids while you jog with your wife everyday????I feel bad for whoever you end up with...your thinking isn't even in this hemisphere...but I will loan you a pretty red ribbon to tie around your unrealistic idea of life. Some men want corvettes but drive a beater instead...... rolling eyes here..and laughing so hard..waiting for snow white to come out and hand you the bird sitting on her finger singing to you... gawd what have you been smoking? The guys at the station are laughing too..I think the word "milk toast" came up about you....won't say the rest. pre-nups for a physique expectation...I'd say maybe a tree or a brick might marry you but then it wouldn't be able to grow leaves...or gain mortar. | |
