4. Non-matrimonial Privileges Of Women

As already been stated, the division of our subject into the Matrimonial, Civil, and Criminal and Non- Matrimonial Privileges of Women, although obviously convenient, necessitates some over-lapping. This, however, is unavoidable, as, for many reasons, it is well to keep the promised or actual wife’s privileges against her husband and others clear from those of other women. But women in general have many and serious privileges besides those affecting the matrimonial or quasi-matrimonial relations.
