You can do this? Lol, no way!
I think this story is funny, but it brings up some important thoughts about what it means to be married these days. In a legal sense anyways.
And, on another tangent, how do you think this would have played out in the news if the situation was the other way around? “Man sues wife for not putting out?” (Ohhh, I can already hear the lady bloggers seething)

London, Sep 7 (IANS) A man has been ordered to pay his ex-wife thousands of pounds in damages for failing to have enough sex with her during their 21-years of marriage.
The 51-year-old has been fined 8,500 pounds under article 215 of France’s civil code, which states married couples must agree to a ‘shared communal life’, Daily Express reported.
The judge ruled that this law implies ‘sexual relations must form part of a marriage’.
The rare legal decision came after the wife filed for divorce two years ago, blaming the break-up on her ex’s lack of activity in the bedroom.
A judge had granted the divorce and ruled the husband, named only as Jean-Louis B, was solely responsible for the split. But his 47-year-old former wife then took him back to court demanding the cash in compensation for ‘lack of sex over 21 years of marriage’.
But a judge in the south of France’s highest court in Aix-en-Provence ruled: ‘A sexual relationship between husband and wife is the expression of affection they have for each other, and in this case it was absent. By getting married, couples agree to sharing their life and this clearly implies they will have sex with each other.’

August saw many, many couples getting hitched! But those pounds she lost for the wedding, might be creeping back on sooner than she thinks!
Cut the cake! Both men and women are likely to pack on a few extra pounds after they get married. That modest figure is an average—it also includes married folks who gain or lose a significant amount of weight upon tying the knot. And according to a new study, marriage is linked to a heightened risk for major weight gain among women. For men, the pounds come a little bit later: after the divorce.
Add a steady waist measurement to one of the many social perks of marrying as a man. Married men make more money and get more promotions than single guys. They live longer, have less heart disease, drink less, smoke less weed, and experience less stress. Meanwhile, married women have less fulfilling sex lives and less free time than their husbands. They also have smaller paychecks. (They do get to keep smoking the same amount of weed). These factors help explain why women are less into marriage than men are. And they may also contribute to the gendered risk of gaining weight after getting hitched.
