French court says marital sex 'duty', wife puts case to ECHR

> An appeals court said the woman’s decision not to have sex with her husband constituted a violation of the obligations of marriage, making her solely responsible for their divorce

> In 2019, an appeals court in Versailles found the woman, 66, to be solely at fault in her divorce from her husband.

> Its main grounds for this was the fact of her not having sex, as reported by her husband, which the court said constituted “a serious and repeated violation of the obligations of marriage, making the maintenance of a shared life intolerable” for him.

> The ruling was approved by the Cour de cassation – one of four courts of last appeal in France, with jurisdiction over civil and criminal matters.

> On March 17, two associations representing the woman said that she has now appealed to the ECHR to overturn the French ruling on the grounds of intrusion into her private life and violation of her physical integrity.

Fucking right it's a marital duty, else what else is she bringing into the marriage?

debt, bitching, and shoes. Lots of all of those, actually.

Even if established that women bring sex, note how things are so fucked up now that a woman can divorce for no reason and the man is expected to maintain HIS side of the bargain, ie the house, kids, and munny, all the fucking munny.

But we don't expect HER to maintain the cooking and sex?

MGTOW is da way.... or fuck off to Asia and find a decent woman like I did.

A loveless marriage seems like good reason to assign fault. Nobody is saying she had to fuck em, just the divorce will favor him now.

I think the feminist position is that people should have more reasons to get out of loveless marriages, not less.

I mean what happens if she wins? In many EU countries people will be trapped for years waiting for the point they can get a no fault divorce. That will only lead to distress and abuse.
