Alienation of Affection
Friday, October 19th, 2007My thought for the day came out of nowhere when I learned that the alienation of affection law was based on the belief that a wife was the property of her husband. Therefore, when a woman was emotionally or sexually involved with another man, she was considered to have been stolen.
Those who want the alienation of affection laws to remain believe that alienation of affection lawsuits protect traditional marriage.
I thought this was a wild concept to think about in the situation . . .
crazy how life can have such spins . . .
