The fact that is was her sexual history is not relevant (to me) - if she'd lied about her income, or he'd lied about his level of education, it would still be fraud, and certainly under English legal history I'm sure this would have been covered as "breach of promise".

Yak! no!
Difference in income or education would NEVER be grounds for annulment of marriage, sheesh!

It's the details of the fraud that has everyone all fired up here. What if she'd been a he and misrepresented that? Where's your righteous indignation then?
Personally, I feel sorry for the woman. This has got to be her worst case scenario. She didn't want any of this.
Christ, talk about tempest in a teapot (except in France where it actually means something).

False!
What happens in one "Western Civilized" country impacts all countries in the era of globalization, or hadn't you heard of this. Many years ago in France Muslim women started getting hymenal fabrication down by doctors in order to fake their virginity (with AND without consent of prospective husbands).
Now this ridiculous surgery has become mainstream on this side of the ocean and is even covered by medical insurance in some places.
This is a global world, what happens to one happens to all.
