Can a husband rape a wife

April 1, 2018 10:14am CST
Saw a post on Facebook where a wife is suing the husband for rape and I'm like weird things really exist. Can this case see the light of the day,is there any thing like this?

I think the response of @yukimori would suffice but just to let everyone know, the Philippines has marital rape laws in place.

@augusta123 rape most of the time has the element of force so that is one good way to start the investigation

Of course there is such a thing as marital rape. If the wife doesn't want to do it and the husband forces himself upon her, then it is RAPE plain and simple. That is a crime. No means no.

@augusta123 When there is true love and caring in a marriage - none of this would ever occur.

I hope if the husband stray in the process of denial the woman wouldn't shout adultery

Yes. A husband can rape a wife. If the wife says no, he must respect that.

I believe it is so. When a husband and wife gets married, it is natural that they make love. This is of course must be consensual or meaning both agreed to the act without force. I know there is a case about this.

It must be martial discord between both and she is taking the shelter of rape to get rid of her husband, in my view.

@augusta123 How would you prove that someone entered your house without your consent?

@1hopefulman If there is a broken lock - but many times the cops say there is no sign of forced entry.

It is possible. I had seen some cases where the wife filed a rape case to her husband

@augusta123 For some women who are empowered. They dump their husbands.

Yes of course it can be rape. No means no. But proving it might be very difficult.

If the husband was abusive, she can sue him

Certainly, but that marriage will be over

Yes I think so. If the husband forced the wife then it's rape.
1 Apr 18
But how can she prove that it might be a little difficult

I would imagine that it could happen. it's not something we usually think of, but it probably can happen. Either way, I don't think it's right. Rape is just wrong.

It is a rape if a wife is not willing under the law.

If the wife said "no" or "stop" but the husband kept on coming on to her and even kept on doing more than that that's rape in my opinion. Rape is rape even if the people happen to be married or are in a relationship.

Yes, i heard a case like that. It's marital rape... it is natural for married couple to make love. But if the situation is like , for example, the husband wants to make love but then the wife refuses. She refused until her husband got what he wanted. The wife then filed a marital rape case against her husband. A man should respect the decision of the woman. Oh well, i am just sharing what i knew about this.
