Brussels, Belgium (AHN) – A recent ruling in Belgium allows a spouse to file for divorce on the grounds of erotic chats with a virtual partner over the Internet.
Belgian legal publication De Juristenkrant says the Brussels Appeals Court ruled transcripts of the erotic chatroom conversation can be regarded as a proof of “grossly insulting behavior” and provide sufficient grounds to file for divorce.
The court ruled, however, the erotic chatroom conversation does not serve as proof of adultery.
