Lawmakers in Mexico City are pragmatic if not romantic. A renewable two-year wedding license is in the offing, the thinking is that a ‘no fault’ opt-out – or ‘rental agreement’ will lower the divorce rate. Love it or hate it, the new law is likely to keep newly married people on their best behavior. Knowing that you can be traded in with less fuss and bother than your car, could save one from falling into the kind of dirty sock tossing, remote control hogging, behavior which inspired the motto "Familiarity breeds contempt."
