Must The License Be Abolished? Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Must The License Be Abolished?



A woman is dependent on her husband
Economically or emotionally
Or both, which makes her surrender to him
And accustoms her to many sufferings.
Subjecting her to forceful sex is one.
Marriage is a license for consensual sex
And not man’s unilateral right.
Woman must resist marital rapes.
Anything misused must be withdrawn.
Must we withdraw the marriage misused?
