Does the Bible Say I Have to Give My Abusive Husband Sex on Demand?

You’re not a toaster. 

No matter what you've been taught by religious leaders, you’re not a thing to be used.

No matter what you’ve been told by your husband, you’re not an appliance to be owned.

No matter what you’ve come to believe about yourself, you’re not property — at the mercy of a spouse who wants toast on demand. 

If you've found yourself tormented over how you’re treated in your marriage, especially when it comes to sex, and you waver between disgust and despairing “submission,” I have a new bottom line for you.

It's four little letters, and it never justifies your mistreatment.
