| [slm] I think it is quite necessary to ask for a medical certificate with blood work etc done, prior to a marriage. Not just Rh factors and stuff but STDs, too. I know that the Eastern culture does not look favorably on this request. Plus, if a girl were to ask for it, it is almost bordering on insulting the other party. What are your thoughts. ??? |

| [slm] I think its okie if the person requesting it is willing to undergo a medical exam themselves [wlm] |

| I see nothing wrong with asking for blood work prior to marriage. One of the kids my sons grew up with has an STD now for the rest of her life cause someone didn't tell her, or someone didn't tell her husband who he had been with prior to their marriage. And at 24 will live with this the rest of her life. Some people have to much pride to tell and are selfish for their own reasons and unfortunaltly won't tell a person. When my husband and I married I asked for proof and the navy does the HIV test yearly anyway and I promptly asked my GYN to test me for everything possible. I had been married prior and some things don't show up for years later. I would rather insult a person than to live with an STD for the rest of my life. Some can make a woman sterile. Insult or STD and no children??? If anyone reading is dealing with this, insult away :-) You body is precious and it will show the future husband (or wife) you care enough for your body. If you get the....."You don't trust me?" line tell them I am willing to do this for you and expect the same in return. |
