Legalizing Rape

Just when we think that the world has hit a new low, the democratically elected government of Afghanistan has passed the “Afghan Shiite Personal Status Law”, which mandates that a wife have sex with her husband at least every 4 days and can only leave her home with his permission, except in certain specified emergencies.
Stunning.
