Yitay: This is a famous Sugya. I believe that what I said would be agreed to by both the Beis Yosef and Shach. Pashut P’shat is that the Beis Yosef held that a man and his wife is always Derech Chibah but that they agree to the same basic principles. But even if you don’t say that, it’s really not tenable to say that the argument is as wide as some make it. It just doesn’t make sense. And everyone holds of the concept of “Derech Chibah”. The question is how to define it. And the Shittah of the Ezer MiKodesh and the B’nei Banim is quite a minority opinion.
