The question that will be dealt with in this article is whether the Lebanese law of personal status coincides with the Convention on the Elimination of all Forms of Discrimination against Women, or whether it emphasizes oppression and discrimination? This article sheds light on the issue of civil marriage, its implications and how it is perceived and dealt with in the Lebanese society.
