France Proposes Bill to Eliminate Marital Sex Duty Concept
A new bill in France aims to legally abolish the notion of mandatory sex within marriage, redefining conjugal rights.
French lawmakers are considering a groundbreaking bill that seeks to officially eradicate the concept of mandatory sexual relations within marriage. This proposed legislation would abolish what has been referred to as “conjugal rights,” a term that implies a legal obligation for couples to engage in sexual activity as part of their marital duties.
By enshrining this change in law, the French government aims to promote a more modern understanding of marriage that respects personal autonomy and consent. The bill reflects a significant shift in societal norms, recognizing that intimacy within a relationship should be based on mutual agreement rather than obligation.
