Looking for opinions on a delicate and sensitive issue

Worth noting that it doesn't sound like the guy has forced himself on her, and just saying "this is your job as a wife", while insensitive, isn't rape, so long as that statement is only backed up by threats of separation and divorce rather than anything physical.
But yeah if he used force or the threat of force it is sexual assault.

Emphasis for clarity. I assume you just missed his post.Thank you for the serious answers.
No, it's not me.
I have absolutely no doubt it's rape in our Canadian society, but in this case, another culture comes into play, even though they live in Canada.
I've suggested that she get a divorce, but her cultural beliefs are strong and she can't bring herself to do that.
Then I suggested she press charges if he continues to force himself on her. This is why I was looking for opinions from those who may know if that's the right course of action.
I've told since they're here, our laws apply fully.
Again, thanks for the serious answers.
Husband fondles wife's breast and butt when she is asleep. Wafe
woke up to fend off husband's hanky panky.Could the husband get
charged for indecent assault? I guess he could had he ignored wife's
refusal to allow his hands to continue roaming and resort to
coercion and violence to finish his deed.
The above two posts are interrelated so one reply.Worth noting that it doesn't sound like the guy has forced himself on her, and just saying "this is your job as a wife", while insensitive, isn't rape, so long as that statement is only backed up by threats of separation and divorce rather than anything physical.
I bow to the superior knowledge of one of my learned friends of the Upper Canada Bar as to the specifics of the Criminal Code, however, as a general statement both of these indeed involve lack of consent. However, how likely is it that the prosecution will be able to secure a conviction in this type of "he said, she said" and without any evidence of physical abuse or very strong collaborating evidence such as they were in the midst of a divorce to bring charges?
On the other side of the coin, not that anyone here on TERB would get themselves into such a mess. Do you really want to take the chance of being criminally charged with the costs both monetary and social associated with that, and of course the possibility that the Jury believes her version of events.
Lack of consent.I did not advocate rape in my post. I never thought a husband
trying to have sex that way constitutes rape.
lol... do tell..i've only heard of 'realdoll' about 5+ yrs ago... and best to my memory, this stuff looks on par or better than the realdoll's faces... yet the realdoll sells for like 5K i think.... so i would be impressed if $250 really gets you the product on their pics lol.Just great!
Those chicks are ALL way out of my league!
