My point is that in today's America, practically everybody gets the annulment he wants.

Uh, no. I know of men who quit marriage tribunals when they received death threats after turning down requests.

It is true that there are a lot of annulments granted, but there's a lot that are granted based on omissions at the time of the marriage, i.e., refusal of children, planning ahead of time not to stay married (by one party - and yes I know of more than one annulment where this was the case), addictions, etc.

It's my understanding that well over 90% of annulment applications are routinely approved. In my book, that's "practically everybody".
