I heard this at the Tea Party event in Houston today.

To be fair, this has been the case in the USA too.

Probably doesn’t fly now-a-days but in some places it was impossible to rape your wife. Conjugal rights or something.

Look it up and you may find that it wasn’t until the 1990’s that states were starting to remove the exception of a spouse in the case of rape.

Now don’t get me wrong, I don’t like the living devils we call islamists at all, just saying we had some wacky rules ourselves.

That's what I thought too.

Guess I better watch my P's and Q's with the Missus, and reevaluate. /s

Have to disagree with both of you. A wedding ring should not take away a woman's right to just say no.

In the U.S. it’s not rape ... if you don’t wake her up.

The rules weren’t “wacky”. In fact, the feminists pushed the change so that, in combination with changes in rules of evidence, any woman who was mad at her husband could have him prosecuted for “rape”. False charges of physical abuse and child molestation are also quite common.

I find it interesting that all it takes is for something to be around for a while and suddenly people uncritically assume it is reasonable, just, etc. “Sexual harassment” is another example of an offense invented by feminists so that women in the workplace could intimidate employers and male employees.
