January 22, 2025 at 7:30 pmAccording to Section 12 of the Hindu Marriage Act of 1955 if impotency is proven then without a doubt divorce is provided to the couple (from Google)-

January 22, 2025 at 7:47 pmImpotency applies only to husbands. Legally and even technically, the corresponding term used in binding judgements for women is “infertility” and that is not a ground for divorce.
Moreover, Fact in issue isn’t whether the wife was infertile. Apparently, she is denying sexual relationship (or, coitus as per Dr. Cooper) with her spouse. SC and many HCs have repeatedly stated that sexual relationship is sacrosanct to marriage and hence, any denial of the same would amount to mental cruelty which is a gender-neutral ground for divorce.-

January 23, 2025 at 12:18 amHelp me understand. So, suppose a man alleged his wife not providing sex to him and filed for a divorce. But the wife says I do provide him sex and he is lying. How would the man even prove that she’s not.-
UUser_5464ac72
PARTICIPANT
January 23, 2025 at 2:33 amUsually, denial of sex would mean that the wife had moved out of her marital home, and the husband had no access to her for some time. That is considered cruelty towards husband, and the court can grant divorce. Generally, the rulings on this thing works in favour of the person who filed the case as the court’s understanding is that, “why would anyone come to court lying about such intimate information?”-

January 23, 2025 at 9:08 amSo, if the wife is staying with husband(hasn’t moved out), he cannot do anything, right?-
UUser_5464ac72
PARTICIPANT
January 23, 2025 at 9:30 amNo, he can still claim that she isn’t available to him sexually. However, as is the case with matrimonial disputes in family courts, strict evidence is not really needed. It’s not usual to see the wife fighting back in such cases as why would you want to be with someone whom you are not interested in being in a relationship with?

January 22, 2025 at 7:50 pmImpotency is not the lack of sex, but the inability o have sex. Denial of sex is a grounds for sex, whereas impotency is a ground for annulment of marriage.-

UUser_ea72ec8c
PARTICIPANT
January 22, 2025 at 7:32 pm> if you ask sex its marital rape 😔Asking for sex is not marital rape. Forcing your spouse to have sex with you is considered marital rape (not in our country but the general definition)
Withholding physical affection from your spouse and using sex as a weapon is cruel in my opinion. Sex is supposed to be something which both parties should be enjoying not one party using as a tool to make the other person listen to them.
If you find yourself in a dead bedroom situation or with a person who uses sex as a weapon, try to fix it through communication or going to counselling or divorcing if everything fails. But forcing your spouse to have sex with you IS and should be considered Marital Rape (again, not in our country)

January 22, 2025 at 6:51 pmLegally yes, but that’s not worth it, you will have to face false cases which she will definitely file. False cases, alimony and maintenance, it’s not worth it. Find other ways to fulfill your desires or work on a mutual divorce-

January 22, 2025 at 7:12 pmWork on a mutual divorce, or else you’re screwed. It’s your choice, you want to loose 50-60% of your life income or you want to live the way you are. Contesting a divorce in court by men is a dumb move nowadays. -

January 22, 2025 at 7:32 pmThat was a terrible advice Lol, if your wife gonna find out what you’re doing behind her she’s gonna screw you so bad (law is in full favour of women)and also it’s morally not correct, so it’s better if you work on mutual divorce.

January 22, 2025 at 6:54 pmThere are few factors: impotency, se less period, duration of deprivation … It can’t be temporary impotency due to medical surgery of something for a month or two.Connect to a lawyer and sex is vital part of married life, it can’t be denied and it’s perfect ground of divorce.
