France is to enshrine in law the end of so-called “conjugal rights” – the notion that marriage means a duty to have sex.
A bill approved on Wednesday in the National Assembly adds a clause to the country’s civil code to make clear that “community of living” does not create an “obligation for sexual relations”.
The proposed law also makes it impossible to use lack of sexual relations as an argument in fault-based divorce.
Though unlikely to have a major impact in the courts, supporters hope the law will help deter marital rape.
There are several concepts you may wish to read up on, such as polyamory and divorce.
Except that is exactly what this law states - that you can onesidedly divorce based on a sexless marriage. So now you cant divorce for fault and need your spouses approval
That… is not how any of this works. You can totally divorce even if your spouse refuses. There’s mutual consent, at fault, mutual acceptance of marital breakdown (irreconcilable differences), and definitive severance- i.e, you are no longer living as a couple.
As a side note, it’s fucking hilarious that your worst possible imaginary scenario is what’s been actual reality for most women until extremely recently.
Am I just misunderstanding what your saying, to me the worst case scenario for women would be what the right in American wants, for men to have to give approval for a divorce.
That’s absolutely not what I want, I’m just saying sexalual drive varies greatly and if you are someone who loves sex and suddenly you find yourself in a dead bedroom,. You should have the right to leave the relationship and make yourself happy
