Question : For example, he makes a woman his wife, so it is not out of love for the woman, but out of obedience to his mother.
Answer : This is not coercion. It is not coercion unless she takes a knife and says, “Either you do it, or I will kill you.” But if she merely says, “Either you do it, or I will be angry with you,” for example, that is not coercion.
