If it's abusive, then there's fault. Then, she would have satisfied the "at-fault UNTIL PROVEN OTHERWISE" provision of my plan.Sounds kinda like an attempt to make women dependent on men, and to give non-working women (who may have wanted to work but were not allowed to or told not to) no recourse if they want to get out of an emotionally or physically abusive relationship.
It's justice. 1/3 of all divorces, under this plan, will require the man to prove his claim.In short, it's sexist.
It would affect the petitioner for marriage a lot more than it would affect the one on the receiving end.Whether or not you want to make it legally impossible for someone to get out of a marriage, that's what your idea encourages, and even you admit it would affect women much more than men.
