I would only think that they would be needed if the husband and wife came to the relationship with VASTLY different economic support for the marriage, of was a hot-shot in a business. I would hope that people would enter into a relationship with enough trust that this would not be a universal requirement.
Prenups are good to a certain point. I think after a certain point of time the prenup should no longer be valid. Death, abuse and affairs are the exceptions
Prenups are ridiculous for anyone that's not rich. It seems like those people are already planning on the marriage to fail. If you're marrying for love then there is no reason to be worrying about your money.

Yeah true, I suppose it's different for every individual.
They're definitely not the most romantic thing in the world, and they do betray a lack of trust- but is it a lack of trust in your partner, or just in their faith in your relationship? As always when lawyers and governments get involved, it's very expensive to be wrong.
Whenever there is an estate, company, or resources affecting a 3rd party then a contract makes sense. If the collective resources entering the marriage can be distributed using common sense upon divorce then it seems like overkill.
