Question: What would happen if.......................?

Explanation: What would happen if a gay man and a straight women got married under only the pretenses of marriage being a sign of their great friendship and nothing to do with sex, expect having children via sperm insemination. After a few years of dating other people, raising there children and a happy friendly marriage, would the women be legally allowed to marry another man however being heterosexual why also being married to her homosexual friend?

Qualifiers:
LindaH: old: You mean if she was still married to her gay friend? This seems more like a legal question, as it is worded. It's an interesting survey though. I've imagined a somewhat similar scenario, involving a lesbian couple, and a gay male couple, sharing a house, and each marrying a friend of the opposite sex, for all the legal benefits. In fact, I considered making a survey about it.
LJD: old: There is no marriage really between the gay man, and straight woman. They for convenience, selfishly had children, They are really not a marriage the woman can marry another heterosexual male. A union is not a marriage if married for all the wrong reasons..deception.
cantilever: old: A divorce would be necessary. I dooubt if non-consumation could be verified.

jettles: old: what?? pretense then except instead of expect and then what about divorce?? this makes no sense!
jettles: old: what i said below

Crayons: old:
Strider: old:
they: hopelessly flawed: I've been trying to think of suggestions.


I really can't. I just don't think this is a survey.
Enigma: reasonable:
LindaH: reasonable:
Melf: hopelessly flawed: There are two questions here and neither make sense. I think the whole question should be reworked.
moviesnob: hopelessly flawed: This isn't really an opinion thing you can do a survey on - this is a factual question. Answer: If the woman got legally married, it's a legal marriage, so they'd need a divorce, or annulment, and she can be on her merry way.

You should also specify what country this is - right now I'm assuming US.
cerealkiller: needs work: Dumb question. Polygamy is not legal, at least in the U.S.
Strider: reasonable:
aquawolfy: *pick*: ..............huh?
ausfox: reasonable:
kirst: needs work: Your explanation is very confusing.
dab: needs work: [Except] having children...
[their] children...
[while] also being married...

And work on the run-on sentences please.

It's a question that does not make any logical sense. Needs option for *check* Never mind, it was the spicy chili I ate before I went to sleep.

I think it would be totally fun for someone to create a completely nonsensical survey, and for 5 people to reasonable it, and when it qualifies, a few of us 'play along' answering it and totally confuse the heck out of everyone else.

But it wouldn't be very nice.

I don't know if we'd be married, Cloud... are you going to get hitched with my heterosexual friend after you're artificially knocked up with my good time soldiers? *evil smile*

Sounds good, Linda. Let's get this party started. *grin*

That kinda what I was trying to do, cause half of the people in qual validated it as a worthy survey and question and the other half didn't so I wanted to see the outcome of people believing it to be a question and others not believing it to a question. Oh wait isn't that troll behaviour? hmmm I'll have to ask Carol about that one. *rolleyes*

Wanting to see how people perceive things isn't the least bit trollish. It's a perfectly legitimate way to see how people tick. Some of my surveys have been designed to see if people pick up 'missing info' or see something that's not there. I deliberately leave out details, to see how people fill it in.

HA very clever, I sorta intended for this question to make sense but cause my words and the question didn't agree to make sense I thought i'd make a controversy, like yous.

We don't make controversy...the controversy is there, we just point at it and say something.
