Summary

This quote highlights a restriction in England where it is illegal to express, in written form, the idea that a wife is capable of and entitled to experience sexual pleasure during intercourse. The quote suggests that acknowledging female pleasure in this context is seen as taboo or even potentially offensive. This regulation reflects an outdated societal perspective that disregards women's sexuality, denying their right to desire and enjoy sexual intimacy within the bounds of a marital relationship. Such limitations underscore the need for progressive conversations surrounding gender equality and sexual autonomy.
