Rape in marriage

Fundy Christians are not helpful to women with inconsiderate husbands. Some like Phyllis Schlafly think a husband can rape his wife any time he wants to. Many women only find out what inconsiderate things their husbands want after marriage. If nasty things are forced onto a wife Schlafly still says that is not rape.

If girls do what fundy Christianity says they should they wear purity rings before they marry (if they don’t wear a purity ring they should still act the way fundy Christians think is pure. And they and often marry early. They consent to marriage knowing little more than the biological facts.  Later they find out what they’ve consented to.  Nice Christians do very little before marriage. If the couple are incompatible they find out after they have consented to marriage.  When a couple marry without knowing what the other is like in bed this is a problem for both.

Couples may be incompatible because they like different things. They may be incompatible because one likes it more often than the other. Sometimes a couple are compatible at the time of marriage but change over time. Among fundy Christians it is a bigger problem for the wife because she is expected to be obedient while he can have the sex he wants whenever he wants it. Then role models like frightful Phyllis make things worse.
