Now I fully agree that marital rape should definitely have the same repercussions as rape. However, the summary posted made me think initially that there was no protection for women against domestic violence in India at all.

After some googling, I found some more context

“It is submitted that the act colloquially referred to as ‘marital rape’ ought to be illegal and criminalised. The Central Government asserts that a woman’s consent is not obliterated by marriage, and its violation should result in penal consequences. However, the consequences of such violations within marriage differ from those outside it. Parliament has provided different remedies, including criminal law provisions, to protect consent within marriage. Sections 354, 354A, 354B, 498A IPC, and the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005, ensure serious penal consequences for such violations,”

Tl;dr marital rape is illegal and can be prosecuted. But somehow the court thinks that the act of marriage changes the situation.

Loudermilk had an episode on this.

In my field of research, there seems to be a recent push for artifact evaluation. It's a separate process which is also optional but you get to brag about the fact that you get badges if your experiment results were replicated.

There's also some push back against this since it's additional work, but I think it's a step in the right direction.

I don't think I ever claimed that. In fact, I don't think anyone in this thread claimed that.

I can give you personal examples that contradict both your arguments. Also, I don't know what Rae numbers are but the fact that Americans are moving to Europe is provided in this article : https://www.cnn.com/2023/09/02/travel/travel-news-us-families-relocate-europe/index.html

And 99% of Americans aren't moving. But the few that are moving, are doing so because they don't wanna be in that 1%

I thought I left this kind of cringe back in 2015 facebook.

And you're saying that shouldn't be the case right ? Right ?

I'd insert that Anakin Padme meme here if I had one ready.

By that logic, nothing is a human right since you can find food, water and shelter in the wild.

The problem with that logic is that you assume everyone to be physically able and knowledgeable to live off the land.
