The author says the ketubah requires the groom "to provide food, shelter and clothing for his wife, and to be attentive to her emotional needs." A very misleading half-truth. The text requires him to provide her food, clothing and CONJUGAL RIGHTS. (my emphasis) The Talmud (tractate Ketubot) contains detailed discussion of how often a man is required to have relations with his wife based on where he lives and how long his work requires him to be away. Every day for a man who studies Torah locally and lives at home. Workers in their own town twice a week. Workers out of town once a week. Once every six months for a sailor. (Ketubot, pages 62A-B, Steinsaltz Translation and Commentary) The rabbis even asked the question: May a husband make a career change without his wife's permission in order to better his financial situation, if that change will reduce his conjugal obligation? Abaye said "A woman would rather be poor and enjoy frequent sexual intercourse with her husband than be rich and without him. So he cannot change his work without her permission."

Buchi Emecheta in her novel The Bride Price (1976) tells the story of the clash between the traditional customs of a small Ibo village in Nigeria and the ever-encroaching influence of Africa's European colonizers, as seen through the eyes of a young girl. The bride price, a fee that is traditionally paid by the prospective husband's family for the prospective wife, is a theme that weaves its way throughout the novel. Emecheta uses this practice of bride price to literally, as well as symbolically, represent women's submission to men in African culture.
