3 The husband should give to his wife her conjugal rights, and likewise the wife to her husband. 4 For the wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. Likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. 5 Do not deprive one another, except perhaps by agreement for a limited time, that you may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again, so that Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

People are dying from fentanyl and opioid overdoses. Many suspicious deaths when persons apparently using cocaine list consciousness, had difficulty breathing or their hearts stopped beating. We’re their deaths properly diagnosed.

Not the issue of burying ‘our heads in the sand’. You know when these ‘outsiders’ intend to get certain results and responses, they style their questions accordingly. And what are ‘cultural norms’ are portrayed as ‘women’s crisis’ vis a vis abuse. Ninety percent of Bahamian parents still exercise corporal punishment and so some physical assertion in a relationship is not considered abuse. ‘He hit me , so I hit him back’ type vibe. No, I don’t condone it, and no I have never been in a relationship that got physical but the facts are that it is real and it does happen. And in this day and time when things get out of control so quickly then maybe it needs looking into. But another behavior that may need addressing, according to the younger generation, is the number of young women getting into physical altercations with each other. And these fights turn savage where it’s no longer pulling if haur and weave, but ‘rocks’ and bottles are used as weapons.

Since tge author of the article is not married she is definitely not speaking from experience and if this is an underhanded push for the marital rape bill, again behest is compromised in whatever position she advances. And if she is NOT a Black Bahamian, she is even less qualified to speak on this matter, at least from experience. That being said the explanation is what the more affluent class regards as domestic violence. Point being someone with means can easily walk away and go to a motel or family members who can accommodate them. Persons of lesser means may have to stand up and stand their ground in a relationship and eventually engage law enforcement. So the records of domestic violence among the low income will be more. And remember men are lest likely to report domestic violence for fear of ridicule so the scales may be unbalanced.

The mother said she didn’t even know her son was out on bail until she learned of his death and found out his girlfriend had posted bail. So if he was only 17, how old was his girlfriend? What are the age requirements for posting bail? Was she a ‘cougar’ manipulating this young man and encouraging him to engage in a life of crime?

I know, it’s difficult to disappoint an idiot. Put it in the context it was written tgen apologize, idiot

So why did tge rape victims fail to use the rape test kits? You say you were raped why did you refuse to allow semen or DNA evidence to be collected? Both victims? The nurse can describe the situation as horrific as she wants but if there is no evidence to tie the scene to the accused then her fantasy is just an unfortunate, horrific nightmare
