My perspective:
Pre-nup to ensure that what each of us brought into the marriage is protected (assets and respective liabilities).
Starting fresh, so-to-speak, as a married couple.
Then, 50/50 on all assets and liabilities incurred as a loving partnership, once married.
Divorce happens.
No one plans it, expects it or wants it when they get married (OK, maybe some do-I don't).
50% of marriages in this country end that way.
Maybe stats for non-straight people will be different.
That remains to be seen.
