📝 Summary

The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) has ruled that intimate relationships are not an obligation for spouses. This was reported by the American newspaper The Washington Post (WP). The court reached the relevant conclusion after considering the divorce case in France.

The WP article says that a French court found a woman guilty of a breakup due to refusal to have sex with her husband. However, a panel of seven judges unanimously decided that the French woman could not be accused of divorce due to the lack of intimate relations. The Court also found a violation of Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights, which guarantees the right to respect for family and private life. In December 2024, Belgium passed a law that equates the provision of sex services to work. Now, sex workers in the kingdom will be able to officially conclude employment contracts, obtain health insurance, receive sick leave, benefits and maternity leave.
