Fries & mayonaise slaps (Netherlands)

Yeah, when you’re married the husband will automatically be registered as the dad instead of ‘having to prove it’.

Our wedding had a double layer: we had the plan in our head for a while. Then my dad passed away and on his deathbed my now husband promised him he would take care of me like how he took care of me. So, it became incredibly emotional (6 months later) as some sort of seal on that promise too.

My partner and I wanted it for legal reasons, especially since I’m disabled so he can make medical decisions etc.

We can either "register as partners’ or get married. Both cost the same. Marriage had a wedding party. Costs a lil bit more, but brought together all of our friends and had a beautiful day. So why choose boring?

That is very true, ugh.

Which is weird when you see the IRL support and hype around Bernie and AOC. The people want more left in the democratic party.
