If he makes me feel like I have to have sex so as to not fight, be shut out, not spoken to or made to feel like a bitch is it like rape. Can rape be a mental thing also not just a physical

sister,

Yes manuplilation is rape. If a college professor is going to fail you unless you have sex with him and you do it just so he will not fail you, even if you are making the grade, but he is using it to manupliate you into sex, it is still rape. You are rendered powerless over your abuser. Rape!

We can all say 'Yes', but in the words of the abuser "Prove it!"

Sorry wanted to say one more thing but was interupted...In the state of Md. until the 1980s to out and out rape your wife (even with a separation) was not against the law.

Still makes me feel really dirty and disgusting. But when he says he'll make me pay, he means it.

    My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
