That's what happens when they try to keep too many laws on the books, I would say. In the area of rape, Pennsylvania was thorough screwed up regardless.
They should have undertaken a complete rewrite that took out the bit about spousal rape being impossible (http://www.ncvc.org/ncvc/main.aspx?dbName=DocumentViewer&DocumentID=32701) (which wasn't removed until 1995 in PA), instead.
