Historic and beautiful South Carolina, one of the original American Colonies. Home of sunny beaches, scenic mountains, historic towns and *a few* dumb *OLD* laws.
South Carolina's dumb laws pertaining to women are controversial, on the one hand, making it a great place for a woman to live, while on the other hand, not so much. :)
If a man promises to marry an unmarried woman in South Carolina, then by law, that marriage must take place. This dumb law could legally enable marriage minded females to snag a husband by less than ethical means. Those same marriage minded females need to be aware that it is perfectly legal for husbands to beat their wives on the steps of the courthouse on Sundays.
Work is not permitted in South Carolina on Sundays, so the lucky female who snagged herself a man would get a day off from household chores, and hubby would be off from work as well. Now would be the time to mention that it is illegal to give or receive oral sex in South Carolina, just thought you should know.
I would venture to guess that the dumb laws mentioned above were the precursors to the dumb law making it legal for a husband to beat his wife on the court house steps on Sunday.
One of the legal things a person can do on Sunday in South Carolina is go to church, and every adult male is legally required to bring a rifle to church.
The rifle would be to ward off Indian attacks, not to murder someone or commit suicide, it is considered a capital offense to inadvertently kill someone while attempting suicide.
If a woman marries a man that has a passion for horses, she can breathe a sigh of relief knowing that hubby can not keep his horse in the bathtub.
Hubby will be relieved to know that all horses in South Carolina are required to wear pants at all times.
If cleaning house or home repair are things you don't have time for, or things you had rather not do, then Charleston, South Carolina is the place for you. When your house becomes so filthy or in such a state of disrepair that you can't stand it anymore, the Charleston Fire Department can legally blow your house up. That dumb law could spark a trend towards disposable housing.
Will a single woman be able to snag the man of her dreams in South Carolina and live happily ever after? Only a fortune teller that has obtained a special permit from the state can answer that question.
South Carolina's dumb laws makes a fun read.
