Once again I'm using my husbands account. I can't help it, I'm addicted to the forum. As a woman I would have no problem signing a pre-nup. It's a contract, just like marriage is. The divorce rate is much higher as the number of marriages you have goes up. I think being ready to marry has nothing to do it. It's a wise and educated decision to protect certain assets you want to keep in case you do divorce. Noone goes into marriage thinking they may get divorced, but you have to be realistic, not romantic when it comes to finances. I think it would be irresponsible in this day and age not to have a pre-nup. Pre-nups are not just about what you don't get in the case of divorce, they also protect you and state what you do get in case of divorce. If I was a guy and a girl refused to sign a pre-nup I wouldn't marry her. If she is offended by a pre-nup then she doesn't have the financial maturity to deal with other issues once married.
