The Indian government has opposed petitions in the top court that seek criminalisation of marital rape, saying it would be “excessively harsh”.
The federal home ministry told the Supreme Court that “a man does not have a fundamental right” to force sex on his wife, but there were enough laws to protect married women against sexual violence.
The top court is hearing petitions seeking to amend a British-era law that says a man cannot be prosecuted for rape within marriage.
Violence within marriage is rampant in India - according to a recent government survey, one in 25 women have faced sexual violence from their husbands.
Me: “I am so tired of exaggerated and sensational headlines.”
*reads article*
Me: “Well…fuck.”
This is awful.
Wht is every story I read about women in India basically women saying, “please stop raping us,” and the government replies, “not even a little?”
Excessively harsh for who? Rabid dogs who wrongfully claim to be men?
What a bunch of rapists in power
This is the truth of it. Their words say it all.
That is the weirdest fucking lie…
It’s not rape we’re just fucking a bunch of people that don’t want to be fucked. I’m sure that’s fine. Don’t pay attention to age.
