You need to meet some better girls
That's an extreme generalization. At the same time there has been a few cases of girls throwing acid on their ex-boyfriends/husbands for leaving them and being with a new girl. To the best of my knowledge this is against the law, culture, and Buddhism.
I am not advocating for or against rape. My opinion is totally irrelevant. I am purposely not giving one.
LivinLOS gave a great summary of the prevailing attitude as I understand it. My question is, why is that attitude prevalent as it is different than the west. Just curious as to why. If I understand this, maybe it will help me understand other things here.
I'll step out on any further "no is no / rape is wrong" comments. I'll step back in on any discussion of underlying culture/attitudes towards the parameters of acceptable sexual behavior in spousal relationships.
