Rain Man, I hear you. If I have to hedge my bets, why play around with it at all? We can just stay long-term committed.
I don't think that pre-nups are the antithesis of love but I think that you can't take a vow to love ... "till death do you part" and really mean it on one hand, but also take action for the disposition of property upon the occasion of divorce (which is as we all know, not "till death do you part").
But whatever floats someone's boat. Maybe the vows should be changed to "till we determine that we have irreconciable differences, in which case we shall resort to the pre-nup." That would be more accurate.
I can't say that I blame folk who get a pre-nup though. To each her/his own. HOWEVER, I will not be signing one.

Just a rhetorical question for you: How can a woman say to a man (or vice versa), "I love you", when you are hedging your bets? Isn't pre-nups by design the antithesis of love?
That is one thing I have never understood....
