Excerpt from The Geography of Marriage: Or Legal Perplexities of Wedlock in the United States As well curse the sunlight, and rail at the moon. The views of these extremists are supplemented by writers like Mr. Richard, who seeks in this age, near the dawn of the twentieth century, to bolster up the curse of polygamy, by arguments to prove that it is the form of marriage not only authorized but distinctly sanctioned by the Almighty; and the Marquis of Queensberry, who seriously objects to monogamy as a grievous error, and altogether a barbarous institution born of hypocrisy and bigotry.

----'Choose your love and love your choice' ---- (Thomas S. Monson). From Royals to commoners, the wealthy to the destitute, arranged marriages date centuries back and are still the norm in most parts of South Asia. Why do people opt for arranged marriages in lieu of the romanticized tales of love that the modern day media glorifies? And are there gold standards of perfection that those opting for an arranged marriage strive to find in their partners? This research conducted on modern day Sri Lanka attempts to unravel the raison d'etre behind choosing one's life partner via more conventional matrimonial services. Based on a series of interviews and content analysis of over one hundred matrimonial advertisements in national newspapers, the study explores the concepts of body image, patriarchy and imperialism that ultimately shape the possibilities of Sri Lanka's youth.

There is no question that the most prominent gay rights issue in the United States today is the right to marry. Yet accurate, objective information about same-sex marriage and relationship recognition in the United States is difficult to come by. In this book, Seattle-based authors Peter Nicolas & Mike Strong combine their respective training in law and geography to depict the history and current state of marriage and relationship recognition rights for same-sex couples in the United States in words...and in maps.This publication begins with a detailed history of efforts to achieve marriage rights and other forms of relationship recognition (such as domestic partnerships and civil unions) for gay and lesbian Americans, from the first lawsuit filed in 1970 in Minnesota to the new marriage laws approved in 2013 and the U.S. Supreme Court's 2013 decisions regarding the Defense of Marriage Act and California's Proposition 8-and just about everything (judicial and legislative) in between. Next, it provides detailed information on relationship recognition in the United States, including: * which states permit same-sex couples to marry or to enter into other types of legal unions; * the rules for entering into or terminating such relationships; * a comparison of the rights that each state provides to same-sex couples; * the extent to which same-sex relationships entered into in one state are recognized by other states; and * which cities and counties have domestic partnership registries and equal benefits ordinances. That is followed by a look at efforts to ban same-sex marriage at the ballot box, including: * selected vote details by state and county; * a closer look at where support for such efforts was weakest and strongest; and * a comparison of the processes for amending state constitutions across the United States.For those same-sex couples interested in getting married in one of the jurisdictions that permits same-sex couples to marry, the book features a table that provides detailed information about the prerequisites for getting married, including: the marriage license fee; minimum age and blood test requirements; whether non-residents are permitted to marry; and the waiting period, if any, between applying for a license and getting married.The fourth edition is completely up-to-date, and provides extensive coverage of the votes in November 2012 legalizing same-sex marriage in Maine, Maryland, and Washington, as well as the 2013 laws legalizing same-sex marriage in Delaware, Minnesota, and Rhode Island and the resumption of same-sex marriages in California.
