Alito thought process that a man can't rape his wife because she is

made from his rib....so she is only a component of him rather than a being in her own right.


So what about women that remarry. Wouldn't they have been made from the rib of the first man and not from the rib of the 2nd husband? So remarried women could still be raped?

... I don't think he means one specific woman. He means women in general. This sounds like his religious view. He would believe God created "man in his image," and woman later. Women, he would count as secondary creations - created for man's pleasure and to carry his (man's) babies. In other words, Alito is loony.

men actually have one fewer ribs than women do. Never mind skeletons and x-rays that prove otherwise, they just think that way because... Bible.

An odd view of anatomical inheritance. I guess they think that if Adam had lost a finger, all men would be born with nine.
