Rape is a serious issue and one which many countries are battling with in present times. India and South Africa are known to have a high level of rape.<\/p>\n

Rape is a disdainful act and one that shouldn’t be encouraged. However, is it possible for rape to exist in marriages?<\/p>\n

To a lot of people there is nothing like marital rape, but many women report of cases where they were raped by their husbands.<\/p>\n

Welcome to this Sunday’s edition of Elcrema Sunday Love Special; do you believe if a husband forcefully has sex with his wife that it is rape?<\/p>\n

Drama and Shawn would share their opinions below.<\/p>\n

Drama<\/b><\/p>\n

Absolutely! Rape is forcefully having sex with someone (against their wish). It doesn’t say girlfriend\/boyfriend or wife\/husband; as long as you’re forcing them to have sex with you against their desire, it is called rape.<\/p>\n

Come to think of it, why would anyone force their partner to have sex with them when they do not want to? It is wrong, and shouldn’t be so. Sex isn’t even enjoyable when it’s forced; it’s inflicting pain on the other person and only a sadist would do something like that. Unless you married her against her wish, if she refuses to sleep with you, there’s certainly a genuine reason for that, and you should try to find out why, instead of forcefully putting yourself in her. It could be because she’s not in the mood for it (which is normal), she’s in her period or she’s sick. I don’t think any woman who is married to a man she loves would happily deny him sex, so there’s always a reason for stuff like that when it happens. Find out the reason, instead of forcing yourself on her. It is rape, and if she reports you to the cops, you could be jailed for it.<\/p>\n

\"sad<\/a><\/p>\n

The beauty of sex is in the willingness and excitement of both partners to indulge each other and enjoy sex with each other without force or coercion.<\/p>\n

While it’s unfair for a woman to withhold sex from her man, it’s definitely rape for a man to forcefully have sex with her.<\/p>\n

If you look at a case of rape and marital rape, there are so many similarities; use of force, aggression on the part of the man, unwillingness on the part of the woman, physical abuse to the woman, injuries to her vagina due to her not being stimulated for sex etc. The only separating factor between marital rape and the normal rape is the marriage factor. So rape really is rape, whether married or unmarried; if you have to beat and oppress a woman to forcefully have sex with her, it’s rape.<\/p>\n

The fact that most societies don’t take marital rape serious because it is within the circles of marriage doesn’t make it justifiable.<\/p>\n

On the part of the man, there are other ways you can you can induce your wife into having sex — it shouldn’t be forceful. and if it doesn’t work, you have to be a man about it — look for solutions to what’s making her withhold sex and try to talk about it with her. On the part of the woman, it’s definitely unfair to starve your man of sex.<\/p>\n

But at the end of the day, I believe rape is rape, whether done in the confines of marriage or not.<\/p>\n
