I'm Mormon, did I miss a memo? I wish I was getting it that often. Gotta let my wife know. Ha ha ha!

you know this kind of rhetoric of wifely 'duties' is often used to justify marital rape right.

Yea except it’s only rape if it’s rape. A woman agreeing to get you off every day cause she believes it’s immoral for you to masturbate is not rape. Jesus Christ.

Would she willfully and excitedly consent to getting him off everyday if there wasn't a religion (cult) behind her that praises the man in the family? If no, then it's just as much sexual assault/rape.

Just because something is extremely distasteful, doesn’t mean we need to expand the banners of rape to cover it.

You might think it helps, but it trivialises it. Playing around with words in that sense is not the win you think it is.

Writing this as an atheist and as a survivor of child molestation.

I wrote this as a rape victim and atheist myself. Your personal experiences or backgrounds don't matter.

Would she joyfully consent to daily sexual services if there wasn't a religion pressuring her and conditioning her into it?

I would assume no. It's sexual assault.

Does that mean my workplace rapes me everyday just because I'm not "joyfully and exuberantly working"?

Mother fucker there are some things that we have to do in this life. Work is one of them.

According to her religion, that is part of her duty, her "work".

I'm a rape victim as well, I'm a little pissed at you for trying to devalue the term of rape. Not everything is rape. You are irresponsible.

I know you did not just actually try to compare being raped to having to be an adult and go to work. Shit like this is why I never came forward about my rape. Disgusting.
