    Quick reminder that “Europe” is a mosaic of countries, and that there is a huge difference between let’s say, Portugal, Austria and Latvia.

    I don’t really think there is a country which would be so liberal regarding marriage that you could get married by Elvis or a Machine on short notice amd drunk just to get laid (on the other hand, most European cultures stopped caring about marriage, and donxt need it to get laid or have kids)

      Yeah, the region in question was meant to be broad since this is a pretty specific and peculiar subject.

      The US is a huge mosaic of states, and there’s a huge difference between say California and the Deep South.

      That being said, their question still stands as they were just curious about possibilities in a region. The US is just as large and diverse, so it’s possible something like that exists in Europe, and if so, what.
