520 | |a This article investigates how the rape myths that underpinned the marital rape exemption in South Africa until 1993 have filtered into contemporary legal discourse. Through a feminist sociolegal framing, I integrate multidisciplinary tools that counter simplistic conceptions of rape myths and highlight how myths are locally and culturally contingent.

This exercise illuminates how judges and rapists draw upon the same culturally sanctioned language and techniques to justify marital rape. | ||
