While reading Nabeela Altaf , work: The Rapist Speaks: I got to thinking , this work resulted.


SHE SAID NO! HE SAID YES! (WITH THANKS TO NABEELA ALTAF)

He said , lets have sex to his wife , partner
'' Not to night , I'm not in the mood ''
She turns her back , needing to sleep

He lifts up her nighty , penetrates her
In his mind , he's thinking '' I'm her husband , partner ''
'' I have the RIGHT! '' He grunts , ejaculates , satisfied
Then he turns his back satisfied and sleeps

While she cries , makes no sound
Suffered , matrimonial rape

A too real occurrence still in our times unfortunately! There's no justifying this kind of attitude... one I struggle to understand. You bring up with these words here a very important issue that needs more exposure. No, in all circumstances of marital status(!), means no. There's no two ways about it. A very good write. *hugs* xx

if only the woman needed to have some kind of an erection to make love with a man, the problem would be solved, love would come from both the parties....

One could think that this happened ages ago like when my grandma told me that she never enjoyed sex she just made a hole in her underwear for when her husband came home from the tavern, drunk. But yes in some countries when the women are not financially independent it still happens but this can be an everyday occurrence for women that live in an abusive relationship Rich or poor it doesn't matter.
