[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In 1955 women couldnt have their own bank account and marital rape was legal. Interesting that you think that is "better" than divorce. [/quote] It wasn't until the mid 70s that states started to make marital rape illegal and wasn't until 1993 that all 50 state made marital rape illegal. Still, marital rape is treated differently than non-marital rape in many states. It wasn't until 1974 that women didn't need permission from their DHs or, if unmarried, a male relative to open a bank account in their own name. It wasn’t until the 1970s that the U.S. Supreme Court struck down a Tennessee law requiring a woman to assume the last name of her husband before registering to vote. Yeah, the women of the 50s had it so much worse. [/quote]
