The fact you think "bible thumpers" believed women cannot refuse their husbands.

Although I don't think the Bible ever justified that way of thinking, I think Mamelukesabre has a point. It doesn't matter if it was in the Bible or not, really. The fact is that certain groups of people, both so-called "Bible-thumpers" and non-bible thumpers as well, have throughout history believed that women should always submit to their husbands' sexual whims whether they felt like it or not. They didn't call it a "wifely duty" for nothing. During the Victorian era, all the fashionable experts believed that decent women weren't supposed to enjoy sex anyway. I don't think the people at large believed it for a second, but "Close your eyes and think of England" was the fashionable advice to give to a young woman on her wedding night.

Let me reiterate your statement. You are saying that I am LYING if I say: "I think that bible thumpers beleive that women cannot refuse their husbands".

Would you like another shot at that? Because that statement is absolutely nonsense. In the first place, the above statement is impossible, and in the second place, I never said "I think that...". I stated it as a fact with first hand experiences, not as my opinion. And finally, I was stating what was beleived SEVENTY YEARS AGO, not the present. (or at least by those that were married 70 years or more in the past)
