Must be a democrat.

People lie usually to get some sort of gain. It’s completely legal to lie except when offering services IN WRITING.

This is why a MARRIAGE CONTRACT is important.

If it was in writing, a case could be made for “fraud in the inducement” under contract law. That would void the contract, and, since the person who “sold” the sexual service can’t get it back, he or she could ask to be indemnified in cash.

I'm not an attorney, but I don't think that's true. The defining element of the fraud is deception. That can be verbal or written.

It is, of course, much more difficult to prove a fraud without written evidence.

I do know here in Florida there has been some high-visibility prosecutions of people for defrauding old folks. The contracts they signed were entirely legal, but their signature was obtained by false verbal inducements.
