that wasn't a rape, she consented, just because she thought he was a different guy than she thought doesn't mean he forced himself on her. whats next? will it be rape if she had sex with a guy who lied about being an airline pilot?

One of my "favorite" NY Times front page articles was a discussion of "rapes" that are not (yet) criminal. I kid you not, they told the horrifying stories of women in long term sexual relationships with men, who had sex on nights when they didn't really feel like it because they "knew" their partner would not take no for an answer.

Perhaps the best one was the woman who didn't really feel like sex, because she had dental work done that day. But after a night out drinking with her lover, when they got home she "knew" from the look in his eyes that he would not accept rejection. So she had sex with him anyway. The NY Times was trying to make such situations illegal.

I'm seeing this as rape. The way I read her comments is she was asleep when the sex began and she woke up during the sex. After heavy drinking it takes awhile to fully wake up. If she consented and wanted to participate do you all think she'd freak and run out and tell her friend and boyfriend?
