Your comment does not address the key points in mine.<p>There is no doubt that marital&#x2F; spousal rape needs to be criminalized. Criminalization, of course, is not going to entirely eliminate it - which brings me to the point I&#x27;m trying to make: when both social-conditioning and law-and-order have failed, what&#x27;s the solution?<p>Feminists, including Nikhil and ChongLi, advocate further explicit conditioning (which ain&#x27;t gonna have much effect on the criminals who already care less about their own social conditioning). Without understanding the criminals&#x27; underlying motives, people wanting to effect change will only go around in circles. Where is the proof that the feminist approach works?
