Woody Allen is married to his step daughter, that's all I need to know. What sort of sick society even lets that happen? This insanity has been accepted by many just as rapist Catholic priests have been accepted by many. Of course I believe you Dylan Farrow.
More accurately he married the adoptive daughter of his ex-partner. There wasn't a father-daughter relationship between them that could be the basis of anything like incest.
Friends and relatives can often help raise a child but a father - daugter relationship is more than that, at least in functional family. Allen does look dodgy, especially with Dylan's testimony, but saying that he married his step-daughter doesn't fairly reflect the facts.
A common law marriage is not the same as a de facto marriage. Common law involves a lawful union of a man and a woman, there's an exchange of vows etc.
Common-law marriage. One not solemnized in the ordinary way (i.e. non-ceremonial) but created by an agreement to marry, followed by cohabitation. (Black's dictionary of law, 5the edition)
That article is utter bullshit. Common law is not subject to the dictates of the state, the only way that real legislation can negate it is by identifying a a remedy for a mischief, eg a statute to prohibit illicit marriages, eg those involving incest.
There's lots of wikipedia-style bullshit about the common law out there. If you believe what the state told you about it you've probably been misinformed.
Getting screwed over via taxes doesn't mean that they understand the common law. I'm not suggesting that they're lying, only that there's no reason to believe that they know what they're talking about.
As I said think what you want, I don't really give a shit. I know several people that are common law, same story. I've proven it through a law website and personal experiences. I'm not wasting anymore time.
What matters is the truth. If you think that you can prove it then post the link to your website, unless of course you don't want to risk being shown to be wrong.

He helped raise her....he was her father. I've seen pics of them together with her on his knee, as a kid.

Yeah but he was dating her mom....if he lived with her he is common law = step-dad.

Not at all, it is a living arrangement.

No, that's de facto, not a de jure marriage.

No I know actually people that are living common law. They would know :)

How is that any different to hearsay?

because they know how they are treated in terms of taxes etc. No reason to lie.
