If marriage is a contract between two partners (same or different sex) that gives to the spouses a collection of rights to establish an emotional and sexual relationship, is it right to label unwanted sex as rape inside the marriage?

Those rights disappear once anyone involved no longer consents to that emotional and sexual relationship.
