That is precisely why I am leaning towards having the prenup made "standard issue" and incorporated into the marriage process. The details it contains could still be negotiable prior to signing, but once it is drawn up and signed by both parties and witnessed, that's it. That way it's a fair and equitable binding agreement that both parties have to sign just like they have to sign their marriage license.
Thus, it's no longer a case of one party approaching and asking the other to sign a prenup, a thing that often causes strife in relationships (as is evident right here in this thread).
