Most US jurisdictions didn't recognize spousal rape until quite recently...probably after our Constitution was written. Yeah according to wiki most western countries criminalized marital rape in 1980s.

But did you notice that it says a man can be punished for raping his wife, although just before it says a man can't possibly rape his wife? What a contradiction!
