Can A Man "RAPE" His Wife? by jhidey08(m): 5:02pm On Jan 07, 2015 |
This arguement ensued between me and some of my friends yesterday about a husband raping his wife. NLs, is there anything lyk a husband raping his wife? Is it constitutionally right or wrong? Please kindly share your knowledge by shedding more light to this. Őňĕ łõvĕ |

...in some jurisdictions a man can legally be charged with raping his wife. Personally, I don't believe that should be the case. The marital union is a conjugal one. If anything, he could be charged with GBH if he forces and/or injures her. And from a Christian perspective her body is now his - as his is hers. But note, that as being one flesh with her, to hurt his wife is to hate himself - who hates his own flesh? So, no, I personally don't believe a man can "rape" his wife, but he shouldn't in anyway force or brutalise her. TV |

jhidey08: yes, there is. if your wife doesn't want your penïs in her, find another woman to shäg. no responsible man should force himself on a woman. you disgrace manhood when you do such. |

carefreewannabe: If a man and his wife both drink, subsequently have intercourse and then fall asleep, if she awakens after the fact and cannot remember consenting to the act, he has technically raped her and can be charged. This is even if they both drunk to stupor and neither can remember anything, and even if she does not claim to have been raped. Are you satisfies that he has indeed raped her and should be charged and prosecuted? TV |
Re: Can A Man "RAPE" His Wife? by Nobody: 7:18pm On Jan 07, 2015 |
TV01: Says who? She cannot remember consenting but she can remember that she was raped? This is even if they both drunk to stupor and neither can remember anything, and even if she does not claim to have been raped. I don't agree that she has been raped just because she does not remember consenting. If she doesn't remember consenting, she also cannot remember saying no, right? So a rape cannot be proven. Anyone who drinks to the point that he / she does not remember what he / she did, should not drink. Alcohol is not an excuse. |
Re: Can A Man "RAPE" His Wife? by coogar: 7:30pm On Jan 07, 2015 |
TV01: if she feels she has been räped and she calls the cops then the husband deserves to be charged and prosecuted. everything is about the perception of the victim. i get where you are coming from though - but my definition of marital räpe would be a situation where a husband violently räpes his wife - not the other technicalities involved i.e. consent! |
Re: Can A Man "RAPE" His Wife? by TV01(m): 7:32pm On Jan 07, 2015 |
carefreewannabe: The wording of rape laws - and the push - in the West (certainly UK and the US, and I would have thought Deutscheland), mean that where a women is deemed incapable of giving consent (as in when drunk), if intercourse has taken place, she has effectively been raped. Informed consent is the sole determinant. Charges can be brought even if the "victim" does not allege rape - and the man being equally drunk is no defense, as the wording also deems sex and thus rape to be something men do to women. The whole notion of rape has become politicised and ideologically weighted. It would be good if you grasped the nuances of what you are pushing - your response to my question casts doubt or at least makes me wonder. TV |
Re: Can A Man "RAPE" His Wife? by Nobody: 7:35pm On Jan 07, 2015 |
TV01: What I stand for is EQUALITY, FREEDOM (unless is does not hurt others), and RESPONSIBILITY. The scenario you have described has nothing to do with equality and responsibility. I have never heard of a case in which a man has been charged with rape because he slept with a drunk woman in Deutschland and she either has forgotten to have consented or the authorities decided to pursue him just because she decided to get drunk. 1 Like 1 Share |
