All adults should find that ridiculous and if she is one, she will too. I said that because she will be able to see how her using Islamic rights argument has been ridiculous. Her rights are being fulfilled because of her husband, she should be happy that he even cares about her Islamic rights without him exercising his rights. She will find herself miserable if he starts exercising his God given rights. She needs to understand that it is something that can be taken away so stop taking him for granted.

I disagree. With most women I know, this isn’t the kind of thing you can joke around about. I see your point though, because ultimately it depends on the kind of dynamics a specific couple has. From the sounds of it, OP doesn’t have a very clear line of communication with his wife. If she’s the kind of person who will shout and cry to get her way, she will defeinitely not respond well to a comment like this. She might even percieve this as a “threat” and end up acting out because of this. It’s much better to settle the matter peacefully.
