Please reread my posts and let me know where I advocate rape, spousal or otherwise.
Laws reflect cultural values. This law is different than you find back in nanny states. I'm trying to get at the underlying reason why. In my opinion every law here doesn't have to satisfy to western values. Being different doesn't make them automatically wrong. The law should satisfy Thai values and interests, especially regarding interpersonal relationships. So what are the underlying values?
How much suspected spousal rape is there in Thailand? Oh, the article failed to mention that.
What about the thai women all over the country demanding they be allowed to charge their husbands with rape? Oh, it was some special interest group wanting this.
I said non-issue as I can't see many thai wives denying their husbands. Part of what is wonderful about thai women, imo is that they are happy to please their man and enjoy sex. Thai couples have have one of the highest rates of sex frequency in the world. Can you say the same about the west?
It's a funny headline, but that is pretty much where it ends. They just don't always see the same problems that you may have back in your country. It doesn't make them wrong.
That is what I was reacting to. I get tired of senseless Thai bashing.
Building an unsafe airport due to corruption and putting millions at risk, that is worth criticizing.
