Over a casual dinner, Rachel Kaplan turned to her boyfriend and asked, "You're open for a prenup, right?"
Darren Waldohlz, 38, a partner in a successful speed-dating business, admits he was caught off guard. But he said he realized a prenuptial agreement would protect the house he owns, too.

possibly, but this guy is WAYYY over the top.
He honestly and truly sounds like a Saudi Shiek with his 15 wives....
Son, there's lots of mistresses around.
In most cultures outside the US, it more common than not.
However, his unusual views on women are not grounds for a banning unless he was being vulgar...beyond regular ol FR vulgarity.
I think AOR is a libertarian...
courtesy ping
and no, I do not have a mistress.
I can't afford one, and would not want to hurt my wife or mess up my 4 children's lives.
and you cannot trust a mistress...she will turn on you unless she is well provided for....maybe even then if given cause....too damn risky....unless you're French
You're the one who claimed, many times over, that because of modern scientific strides in discerning DNA and test tube baby making, marriage was no longer needed.
I suggest that you read what you've posted, since it is patently obvious that you have no ideas what you have previously said and have a selective memory to boot. :-)
no screw that...
he's a 15 yr old doing this for kicks.
He is in for a rude awakening when he gets out of his parent's basement.
Agreed! A real creep...needs to find a woman who is big and bad enough to put him in his place!

LOL
That would fix him LOL
Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw...he's a thritysomething living in his parents' basement and has never had a meaningful, nor any other kind, relationship with a girl in his entire life.

Not only do you quote me out of context (for which you should apologize), but I am a man, and therefore was never a virgin.
I don't think I better post what I was thinking, about that comment. Might just get me banned!!
You've got it!
Enjoy! :-)
