To deny one's spouse sex for a lifetime of marriage - that is a sin period. Really? Even if both parties agree to this arrangement before the marriage? That saddens me. It is a direct violation of 1 cor 7. Paul says to deny sex to your marriage partner is defrauding them (the word is VERY STRONG in the greek) and that it is only allowed by mutual agreement for a short time. Paul was mentored by Gameliel, the grandson of Rabbi Hillel, who discussed this also with Rabbi Shammai. Shammai said it was allowable for no more than 1 week, Hillel said no more than 2 weeks.
Why does this sadden you?

My bf and I are both asexual, which means we won't want to have sex with each other even if we do get married. We are very much emotionally attracted to each other, though. So it would be sad to know that my lifestyle of not having sex is just as sinful as fornication. But anyways, that isn't the topic of this thread. I might start a new one later.

What I meant by saying it's not on the same level as stranger rape was this;
I would not be AS traumatized as I would if it was a stranger in a dark alley.
These types of rapes, you don't know if they are going to kill you afterwards, or leave you with STD'S.
I wasn't saying that being raped by your husband wouldn't be hurtful and upsetting because it IS!
If my hubby raped me, i'd feel betrayed and disrespected, not traumatized or in fear for my life. That's just MOP.
I'll condense it. ALL RAPE IS WRONG!!

Huh, I never knew this thread had all these replies...
I just thought of something that made me come looking for this thread. I encountered someone who doesn't believe in spousal rape (a Christian man), and knowing there are so many new people here now, I thought there may be other views about it that haven't been heard from newer people...and older ones as well. I just got curious and wondered what ever happened to my thread. :)

My husband's not even a Christian and he wouldn't think of such a thing. However hypothetically, if he did it once, I wouldn't press charges or go have a rape kit form performed. I wouldn't be as traumatized if it was a stranger, so no I wouldn't view it in the 'classical' sense. I would feel more hurt and betrayed than anything else. Having said that, if he made a habit of it, I'd leave him!
If your husband was to rape you once, he's likely to do it again. It's a well known fact in the Criminal Justice/Law Enforcement community that there is NO rehabilitation for sex offenders.
Your post saddens me becuase (at least from my pov) it says you would be willing to put up with that type of behaviour from a man who supposedly "loves" you. If you put up with it, even once, then that gives him the message that its OK (some sex offenders don't even see anything wrong with what they do; they don't view it as hurting someone--again not all offenders but some).
And if he does it once, he's likely to do it again and again. Most rapists don't have just one victim. It's worth saying again--there is no rehabilitation for sex offenders.
