Congratulations Mark and Priscilla!!! ps. He is wearing a suit to honor HIS WOMAN. He is showing her that he can suit up for her

please don't think of her as "HIS WOMAN" (or him as her man). this implies ownership, and marriage is not about ownership. he might have worn it out of respect/love for her, yes.

The formal definition may mean 'possession', but English doesn't always work like that. Sometimes we say or write things that depend on the context/geography/community for the true meaning. It's not black and white.

Also, I think tersiag was stressing the person for which he wore a suit, not that he wore a suit for HIS woman (instead of someone else's woman).

Earlier quoted context omitted.

If you can't talk about a prenup without ruining things, was your relationship stable and mature enough for a marriage?

If you can talk about leaving your partner with nothing, are you in a marriage-caliber relationship?

Strawman. A prenup doesn't mean "leaving your partner with nothing".

For the HN crowd that likes random behind-the-scenes details:

In the photo, the sun is low and behind them. This makes great rim light--and looks fantastic through the veil--but it also means you need to use strobes or a reflector to light their faces.

It's probably a reflector, gold side up, something like this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/justin_fotog/6018934549/

They're super glare-y to look at; it's kind of hard to keep your eyes open and make any kind of normal face...

Please stop that PC nonsense. Marriage is ownership -- they have a monopoly on each others sexual-ability and in the event of a divorce they will properly have to split the money fifty-fifty.

He's not too smart is he? Married in CA right when the money starts rolling in. HALF! I hope he has a good prenup.

This is one of the most disappointing threads I've ever seen on Hacker News.

Yeah, because we accept reality -- if you get marriaged you are more likely to get divorced than not.

I don't have Facebook, but the title says it all (shouldn't it be 'got married?' btw). I guess congratulations are in order for going public (with their commitment I mean)

Pretty sure he's not planning on running it into the ground.

No on said he did. Nobody plans on running companies into the ground. It still occurs with unsurprising regularity. Lots of interesting books out there which talk about why.

Unfortunately people do plan to run companies into the ground (usually so they can exit the smoking shell with a fat profit) which is why these laws are necessary.
