    Notes:
    SEXUAL ABUSE


    Sexual abuse in marriage is any form of sexual acts that uses force, trickery, or manipulation.


    Sexual abuse can look like withholding sex as a form of punishment. The abuser might refuse or threaten to remove sex if they don’t get their way. Withholding sex is a weapon to establish or maintain dominance. Using sex as a weapon to control is sexual abuse.


    Sexual abuse can also look like marital rape. Any time one spouse is not in agreement or has not willingly engaged in a sexual act, it is rape. It is any sexual act committed against a spouse’s will. The abuser may use physical force, threats of force, or psychological force, fear, or manipulation to engage in marital rape. 1 in 10 spouses are raped by their spouse. Any sexual act should be mutually consented - any time it is not, it is sexual abuse.


    Sexual abuse may also look like criticizing your physical appearance. Abusers might use offensive language about your body or your physical appearance. Abusers might use offensive language about your body or your appearance to undermine your self-worth. This is not love, it is a form of sexual abuse.


    Sexual abuse might also look like unwanted aggression during sexual acts. Hitting, choking, or using any type of force is also sexual abuse.


    SPIRITUAL ABUSE


    Spiritual abuse is using Scripture, biblical concepts or belief systems to control, manipulate, or enforce power over another. Of

    Notes:

    Emotional abuse involves controlling another person by using emotions to criticize, embarrass, shame, blame, or otherwise manipulate them. It can be subtle and insidious, but it can also be overt and manipulative. The goal of the emotional abuser is to control and have power over their spouse.

    Emotional abuse might look like one spouse isolating the other spouse, taking away their network of support. The abuser might feel insecure or afraid of their spouse leaving them or finding or thinking anything different than the abuser, so the abuser attempts to keep them isolated, away from the influence of others. Any time a spouse prevents their spouse from support networks and controls who they can and cannot be with, or when and how they can be with them, this is emotional abuse.

    Emotional abuse might also look like the abusive spouse making threats. The abuser might threaten a certain type of consequence be inflicted, they might threaten to leave, to withhold finances or information, they might withhold sex or affection, a car, a place to stay, the abuser might threaten sharing false information with family or friends, or with an attorny - or they might threaten taking the kids away, or they might threaten self harm or suicide. Any type of threat is emotional abuse.

    Emotional abuse could also be yelling or name calling. Statements such as “You’re so dumb. You’re fat. You're a freak. You’re an idot.” Or any verbal outbursts - this is emotional abuse.

    It might also look like gaslighting. Gaslighting is when the abuser makes the victim question their reality to gain power and control. It’s a way to create doubt and confusion. The victim will typically make a statement, and the abuser will res
