Very good post kools. This is what i wrote in another thread started by leaves. Why so much outrage

For sanchi so much in that process people who said they have no sympathy for Sanchi were rediculed as if they themselves raped her or trying to defend Saurab, when there was nothing on the forum for Ganga when raped as a kid. That included me too. The scene with Ratan repelled me. But even i did not yell rape on the forum. You can not just blame Basant for Gehna's rape. DS forced the rape.
Just like a brothel madam pushing the young helpless unwilling girl into the room with the client.
Marital rape is a confusing concept. On the one hand there is something like wifely duty and husband's
Duty. Looks
Ike now they ave defined what is rape and applying it .



rape is only when woman go to police and they file case. Ganga din t go to police when she was raped neither gehna, but gehna strictly was against rape. but difference was there they dint go to police so it s not rape ? wow great laws indeed

i have heard that marrital rape also is against rules and illegal and base of that law, some court case also can be filed

Gahna did not have a chance to file rape case because she was more than 15 years old at the time of her marriage. That is the law.
As per amended law (2013), exception to section 375 reads:

"Exception 2."Sexual intercourse or sexual acts by a man with his own wife, the wife not being under fifteen years of age, is not rape."

Sad legalities- true they are sad because at least Sanchi can seek legal help but the likes of Gehna and Ganga and many others like them who get raped by their husbands every night there is no legal help available because law doesn't recognise it as offense.


More than law, it is the society that is to blame (I think law was not amended because of society only). The women like Ganga and Gahna can take divorce and some in society will symapthise with them - but if they file a case of rape against their husband - not even their own parents will support them. Even in urban India - women cannot think of filing rape case against husband.

Maybe because legal experts are of the opinion that it will lead to misuse of the law and there's no requirement of it since there are already the domestic abuse law and Forced marriage/marriage under duress laws in force. The thought process is that marital rape shall almost inevitably be part of a larger domestic violence issue which is punishable by law.

Any law/rule that is for protection of women is talked in terms of being misused - strange thinking of our legal experts/journalists/intellectuals etc. We know there are cases of misuse of anti dowry laws etc. but that is very less compared to countless women suffering silently/could not file cases. So the thinking is - the law of marital rape will be misused just like they say law relating to prevention of sexual harassment of women at workplace can be misused. They do not think just because a few persons misuse a well meaning law- we cannot deprived the suffering people a legitimate avenue of coming out of torture.
