France is to enshrine in law the end of so-called “conjugal rights” – the notion that marriage means a duty to have sex.
A bill approved on Wednesday in the National Assembly adds a clause to the country’s civil code to make clear that “community of living” does not create an “obligation for sexual relations”.
The proposed law also makes it impossible to use lack of sexual relations as an argument in fault-based divorce.
Though unlikely to have a major impact in the courts, supporters hope the law will help deter marital rape.
This isn’t saying you can’t get a divorce. It’s saying a woman cannot be legally obligated to fuck her husband.
Then that woman is going to be single. I know truth hurts, but it’s reality
Oh no. Some sexist guy in the American Midwest won’t date the nebulous concept of a woman with bodily autonomy! What ever will the women do???
You stay lonely sweetheart. Happily married 23 years now and I tagged you as forever alone
“happily”
I’m sure she’s happy and not stuck. Whatever you need to tell yourself.
Oh sweetie, if only you had a clue.
Does calling me sweetie give you a boner or something? It’s cool dude I just don’t swing that way. And if I were gay I wouldn’t top for some country bumpkin like you. No offense.
