  • If someone is facing financial repercussions for not wanting to have sex with someone else, that’s rape culture kind of by definition.

    Also, the article is not skipping on other aspects. The husband apparently threatened violence as well. It’s right there in the article:

    The woman, who married her husband in 1984 and had four children with him, wanted the divorce, but contested being blamed for the breakdown, arguing it was an unjust intrusion into her private life and a violation of her physical integrity. She cited health problems and threats of violence from her husband as reasons for why she had not had intimate relations from 2004 onwards.

    Basically she’s saying to the court “it’s none of your business why I don’t want to have sex with him any more”, and …she’s right.
