In India, a man's divorce petition was recently turned down. ADJ Abul Kumar Garg found the man's claims of abuse unfounded since he was still having sex with his abusive wife.
The ADJ ruled that, "Continuous cohabitation with the wife shall amount to condonation of the act of cruelty complained of and condonation in matrimonial cases means complete forgiveness of the act.” In other words: If you're still having sex, the abuse can't be that bad.
What are the acts of abuse? According to expressindia.com, " refusing to do the household chores and frequent misbehaviour." In America, "misbehaviour" is usually what keeps couples together. After the court's ruling, this couple is still together, and probably still having sex.
