婚内强奸是一个许多人难以理解的概念。在俄勒冈州对被妻子格蕾塔指控强奸的约翰·莱迪奥特的审判之前，公众或擅长处理其他类型强奸案的研究人员和顾问很少讨论婚内强奸。然而，媒体对Rideout案件的广泛报道引发了对这一主题的一些问题。例如，当涉及丈夫和妻子的行为时，应将哪些行为定义为强奸？当妇女被迫与她们的丈夫发生性关系时，她们是否接受这是她们婚姻义务的一部分，或者使用武力对婚姻有长期的负面后果？最后，在哪些类型的婚姻中会发生强迫性行为或婚内强奸？本文试图根据对近300名女性的访谈数据来回答其中的一些问题。
Marital rape is a concept that many find difficult to comprehend. Until the Oregon trial of John Rideout, who was accused of rape by his wife Greta, there was little discussion of marital rape by the general public or by researchers and counselors skilled in dealing with other types of rape cases. However, the extensive media coverage given the Rideout case has raised a number of questions about this subject. For example, what actions should be defined as rape when the acts involve husband and wife? When women are forced to have sexual relations with their husbands, do they acceptthis as part of their marital duties or does the use of force have long-term negative consequences for the marriage? And finally, in what types of marriages does forced sex or marital rape occur? This paper attempts to answer some of these questions based upon interview data gathered from nearly 300 women.
