Hah, that marriage certificate. the condition column.
bachelor is fair enough(man who never married)
but spinster(woman who never married?)
nowadays the terms, especially spinster, have a sort of connotation with age.
24 is not that old but would younger people(18-20) have a different condition.
and now I am curious what other "conditions" there are. my guess.
widow/er
divorced(are there archaic gender specific terms for this?)
- messe 3y agoDivorcé / divorcée, perhaps?
- Scubabear68 3y agoMy wife and I married in the British Virgin Islands in 2002, and she was also listed as Spinster. We also had to buy $110 (roughly) of “Marriage Stamps”.
