A pre-nuptial agreement is not uncommon in modern marriages – but one man’s very unusual stipulation in his marital arrangement has left people up in arms.
The bizarre prenup note was revealed by the man’s enraged fiancée, who expressed her horror at her future husband’s demand in a recent post on Reddit’s ‘Am I The A**hole’ thread.
She explained that, in addition to financial terms, her partner wanted to add a clause to their prenup in which she would be forced to guarantee having sex with him a certain number of times every single week.
‘I honestly can’t believe I’m asking this, but my boyfriend has gotten so mad that I’m feeling a little crazy now,’ the 34-year-old woman wrote, before sharing further details about why her fiancé was so determined to add the prenup requirement.
She shared that before they were dating, her fiancé – also 34 – had a terrible marriage that ‘ended in a dead bedroom’.

‘He’s determined to never go back to that life again,’ she wrote. ‘Understood, I think that sucked for him to experience.’
While she took no issue with his concerns, it was what he wanted to add to their already existing prenup next that shocked her.
‘He wants a prenup and literally write in the prenup that we will have sex x amount of times a week, or else I get absolutely nothing in the divorce,’ she shared.
‘I had already agreed to a 50/50 prenup of marital assets, and we keep what we came into the marriage with,’ the unnamed woman detailed.
‘Now that’s not enough for him. He wants me to “prove” that I won’t stop having sex with him in the future.
‘I tell him I can’t prove the future, and putting something in writing doesn’t prove that,’ she wrote.
After expressing her apprehension with her fiancé, he accused her of having a ‘guilty conscience’.
The woman said he responded to her saying: if she’s ‘so certain it won’t happen, then what’s the problem?’
Users were appalled by the sinister addition to the prenup, with thousands of people commenting on the post
‘But to me, it makes me feel like a sex slave and not a loved wife or partner,’ she admitted.
Users were appalled by the sinister addition to the prenup, with thousands of people commenting on the post.
‘Does he even have a lawyer?’ one user questioned. ‘I would think any legal professional would tell him that such a stipulation is unprovable and in fact undermines the entire prenup.’
‘He wants to have her contractually obliged to be raped repeatedly. It’s absolutely horrific,’ agreed another.
‘This is all ridiculous. What if he has COVID? Does he still get laid? Or what if you are in the hospital for several weeks. Does he still get sex?’ another raged.
‘He is not in a place to marry. Real relationships have illness, babies, ageing parents. Walk away, this marriage is doomed, because he can’t see reality,’ they pointed out.
Others pointed out that the prenup also prevents her from leaving, due to the financial burden.
‘[He’s not] only bullying her for sex but putting her into a position to believe that she can’t distance herself & leave without losing her fair share of assets,’ one user pointed out.
