00:00Senator Robin Padilla asked for clarification regarding the issue of rape
00:05by the couple in the Senate hearing.
00:08Yet, the resource person invited, Attorney Lorna Capunan,
00:12said, no means no.
00:14Rafi Tima has a report.
00:20You have sexual rights to your wife.
00:23You don't choose when you're in heat.
00:28What if your wife doesn't want you?
00:30Are you just going to be a woman?
00:32Senator Robin Padilla asked that question
00:34in a hearing of her committee with the media industry
00:37regarding the allegations of sexual harassment
00:40where marital rape was discussed.
00:43The resource person, Attorney Lorna Capunan,
00:46a well-known family lawyer and women's rights advocate,
00:48said that rape can still be considered if one of the couples doesn't want to have sex.
00:52No means no applies to both genders.
00:57The husband cannot force his wife.
01:00The wife will say, my head hurts, I don't want to have sex.
01:04The husband forced the woman to have sex.
01:08Is that rape?
01:09The answer is yes.
01:11Under anti-rape law, a woman can be a victim of rape.
01:15Capunan also clarified that under the law,
01:18the wife is not obligated to obey her husband.
01:22Your wife is there to serve you, but she doesn't want to.
01:27What can I do so that my wife won't complain?
01:31Counseling.
01:33Counseling is needed.
01:36Just pray.
01:38With all due respect,
01:40it is not the wife's obligation
01:45to serve the husband.
01:47We amended the family code
01:50to remove the obligation of obedience.
01:53We don't have a choice.
01:56The issue there is not legal.
01:59The issue there is psychosocial.
