Should Husband and Wife Be Allowed To Rape Each Other?
It is incredible that the Thailand’s Justice Ministry drafted law that legalizes rape by both spouses. For gender equality, the Justice Department said that wife is also allowed to rape the husband. The National Legislative Assembly criticized this draft law last week and set up a committee to revise the proposed amendments. For me, no one should be allowed to rape another person, married or not. An endorsed marital rape by any country is totally not acceptable. A man or a woman has an equal right to be in control of their body. This is part of showing respect of the International Bill of Rights. Thailand being member of the United Nations should make sure that the new draft law on rape complies with the Human Rights Convention.

This law is an absolute disgrace. Both men and women, that includes husbands and wives have the right to say NO!
It would be, on the most part, men raping women and I say this with the knowledge that it does happen the other way, however it appears to me these laws are passed by men, who believe that once they marry, the wife is theirs to do with how they feel.
