Gabriele Pauli Introduces Bavarian Law Where Marriage Expires After 7 Years

@ 08:58 PM (26 months, 15 days ago)

 

Bavaria's most glamorous politician -- a flame-haired motorcyclist -- has shocked the Catholic state in Germany by suggesting marriage should last just 7 years.

Gabriele Pauli, who poses on her web site in motorcycle leathers, is standing for the leadership of Bavaria's Christian Social Union (CSU) -- sister party of Chancellor Angela Merkel's conservative Christian Democrats (CDU) -- in a vote next week.

She told reporters at the launch of her campaign manifesto Wednesday she wanted marriage to expire after seven years and accused the CSU, which promotes traditional family values, of nurturing ideals of marriage which are wide of the mark.

"The basic approach is wrong ... many marriages last just because people believe they are safe," she told reporters. "My suggestion is that marriages expire after seven years."

After that time, couples should either agree to extend their marriage or it should be automatically dissolved, she said.

Fifty-year-old Pauli, twice divorced, is a maverick intent on shaking up her male-dominated and mainly Catholic party which has dominated Bavarian politics since World War Two.

  4. I think her reality is that people may get restless and instead of cheating on their spouses, everyone gets a chance a few times in life to get a redo. Whether I agree is another question. However I see a benefit in no nasty divorces, etc.

  5. This is the craziest thing I ever heard, why would she want to introduce this law? Those who aren't sure with their feelings shouldn't marry at all and those who love each other should marry forever. What happened with the marriage sacrament? Where are we heading with this? We should fight to stop divorce not to introduce expiring terms for marriages.
