If you’ve ever been in a long term relationship, you know that in many cases, the degree of intimacy with your partner rapidly declines. This is a known phenomena. It may be the result of human evolution: since the dangers of pregnancy increase with age, it would make sense that women begin to lose their desire at time goes on. It is not a universal thing, but it’s common enough that many couples struggle with this fact.

There are no easy solutions to this problem, unless of course you are a Christian fundamentalist. You see, some things never change, and lack of marital consumation is not a new problem. It’s so old that the Bible has a solution: if you are a man, you take what you want, and that’s the end of it. Your wife not showing interest, or making excuses? Too bad. God ordained that your penis is law, and any menstruation means that you are the property of their male counterpart.

You would think that such outdated views would be relagated to some far off corner of the world yet to experience the emancipation of women. You would be wrong. These are the thoughts and opinions of Doug Wilson, a man who pastors for one of the most powerful men on earth at this moment in time, Pete Hegseth.

According to Wilson, non‑violent cases of a husband forcing sex on his wife should largely be dealt with inside the church rather than by police. He described these as ‘non‑violent’ rapes that church authorities ought to handle, placing them in what he repeatedly referred to as a ‘gray area.’

Keep in mind that this is the same man that wants to remove the right to vote from women, since they tend to vote for candidates that lean more towards compassion and tolerance, two things that make a Christian man’s balls shrivel up.

If you ever needed another reminder, ladies, as to why conservative religious men are so odious, never forget that their thinly veiled politeness belies a seriously dangerous narcisim, courtesy of a faith that tells them they have dominion over you. You’re better off with a special vibrating device than one of these douchebags, trust me.
