About this listen
The case of R v R (1991) set legal precedent when the House of Lords abolished the ‘marital rape exemption’, meaning that a husband could be found guilty of raping his wife, something which, prior to this case, had not been the case. This case reflected the changing attitudes of women and their roles in marriage, viewing them more as equal partners, rather than subservients to their husbands.
