writes:The thing that I am having the hardest time dealing with is the fact that I was raped... by my husband. Everyone that I know is always saying "how can you be raped by your spouse?" Well, I would like to know if it is ok for me to feel like I am right. For me to be able to know that it is normal for your spouse to rape you. I am having a crazy uncool time trying to deal with this and still be able to act like there is nothing bothering me while I am at work.

 I agree with Old Guy 100%. If you said NO and he force himself on you that equals RAPE. Husband or not.

 Crazy Uncool is putting it LIGHTLY!I am so sorry, but you have got to tell the authorities, for a CRIME has been committed. THAT IS THE ONLY WAY THIS CAN GET RESOLVED. NO means NO in any circumstance. You have got to go to the police.No ifs, ands, or buts. If it really went down like that, you have NO CHOICE but to do the right thing and not let your scumbag husband visit himself upon you again.

reader, anonymous, writes (3 June 2009): A marriage license does not confer a license for sex. Marriage vows do not say that one partner gets sex when and where they want it. Consent is a vital part of the marriage relationship. If your husband forced you, it's every bit as much rape as if he'd taken a woman off the street.
