Since FL doesn't recongise gay marriages I bet that wouldn't violate the terms of the alimony either... gawd the laws are going to have to be updated sooner or later as this happens more and more.

Lots of married people lie about things in marriage... is it any more fradulant? again... maybe in a state where sex-changes are recongised... and where gay marriage is banned... I'd like to see this kind of case brought up there... Certainly an interesting situation. ^ thats what I meant *laughs*

Some have argued that it decreased Julio's chances of marrying and therefor lessen chances of it ending (since FL doesn't recongise sex-changes for purposes of marrying Julio would only have a choice or marrying a man), but a ex could have plastic surgery, eat tubs of icecream or do various other things that would decrease their desireability in the biological opposite sex.... Alimony isn't meant to force someone to marry someone else quickly, it just makes no sense that someone would still pay alimony to someone remarried, thats why the clause is in there. And technically Julio will always be an ex-*wife*... isn't that interesting... Julio was biologically a women during the marriage... And alimony is based on various factors of which *none* is based on happenings/behaviours/events after the divorce, except marriage or death. I personally think in most cases Alimony is anti-quated, but .... I think Julio's ex-husband is stuck.

I personally think in most cases Alimony is anti-quated, but …. I think Julio’s ex-husband is stuck.
