I don't think any of them do it anymore. This was an old requirement...a friend of my mother's had a huge tumor in her uterus discovered at her pre-marital physical. You used to have to show the clerk the doctor's statement when you applied for the license.One of the requirements to get a license used to be taking, and passing, a full physical.If the main reason for marriage is to have kids to keep the human race marching along, then why isn't one of the requirements to get a marriage license a fertility test?
If your swimmers don't swim, or if your eggs are all cracked, does that mean a denial of marriage is appropriate in this case as well?
When I got married in Norfolk VA in 1985, the only requirement was a blood test to make sure we were both healthy. Nothing else.
Can you provide a link showing states that require a full physical, or, if it's your state that does that, can you provide a link showing a full physical is required?
