Bad reasons to get married

Posted on March 18, 2009 By Liquid Egg Product 4 Comments on Bad reasons to get married
In the News, Uncomfortability

(March Madness starts tomorrow. Get your bracket in before it’s too late!)

Some of you probably have heard of Mukhtar Mai. She is a Pakistani who was gang-raped. Instead of living in shame and without hope or even choosing suicide (which frequently happen), she spoke out and pursued justice, eventually drawing international attention.

Now she’s gotten married, but perhaps on dubious grounds:

[The husband] Gabol said he was so desperate to marry Mai that he threatened to kill himself unless she relented. Fearing he would carry out his threat, Gabol’s first wife met with Mai and persuaded her to marry.

Per Islamic law, Gabol is permitted to have up to four wives, and he didn’t dump the first wife.

(UPDATE: Apparently, Gabol really did try to kill himself.)

    i wouldn’t have done the same, but to each their own.

    i assign more integrity to Gabol and Mai’s union than to that of Anna Nicole Smith and that old guy.

    @Annie: Good thing you said that. The Mascot was planning to make himself into an omelet if you didn’t marry him.

    @Blunderprone: No good for us stingy people who don’t do premium cable.

    @Kate: He’s going to go ballistic if he finds any egg examples up.
