Marrying Your Mother in Law.

The European Court has just announced that not being able to marry your mother in law is a breach of human rights. Well, OK, as is pointed out:

A spokesman for the Catholic Church said it had no ethical objections to the marriage of in-laws who were not blood related.

But why? If you didn’t like the daughter, why would you like the older version? And what does this do to the traditional joke industry?

    Bill Wyman’s son certainly got engaged to Mandy Smith’s mum but I don’t think they actually got married. I would say it was a bit wierd but they were so much closer in age than the other two that is was in fact less wierd.
