Marital rape (also known as spousal rape and rape in marriage) is non-consensual sex (i.e., rape) in which the perpetrator is the victim’s spouse.

Marital rape exists and acknowledging this very fact is what we need to do. Saying that there is nothing as rape in marriage is not true. Sex without consent is rape, it does not matter who the other person is. A no is a no and this is what everyone needs to understand. If you are married it does not give you the right to treat the other person as your property or making sexual relations without consent. Two people get married to support each other in every thick and thin and not to force oneself on other if the other person is not ready to make sexual relations.

In our society we don’t acknowledge marital rape. Share this with your family and they will laugh on what you have said. For them if you are married there is nothing called ‘Rape‘, it is just ‘Intense Lovemaking‘. Any kind of lovemaking is with consent but without consent it is rape, and this is what every person should know to differentiate between them.

Girliyapa targeted this very issue in their video ‘How I Raped Your Mother’ and with satire tried to make people understand how insensitive society is with this issue. Nobody is ready to call it rape and instead of showing support to the victim they support the one at fault because such are our family values and social norms.
