The marriage of any male person in this state who is under 19 and over 18 years of age, or the widowerhood of any male person in this state who is under 19 and over 18 years of age, or the arrival at the age of 18 years of any married male person or widower in this state, has the effect immediately to remove his or their disabilities of minority, and thereafter he has the same legal rights and abilities as married male persons or widowers over 19 years of age.
