British MP Says Sex With Sleeping Women Isn't Rape But 'Bad Manners' (Socialist George Galloway)
businessinsider.com ^ | Adam Taylor | August 20, 2012

British MP George Galloway has created controversy in the UK for comments made about rape during a British radio broadcast.

Galloway was discussing the sexual allegations against WikiLeaks mastermind Julian Assange in an episode of his "Good Night" podcast published on August 18th.

The New Statesman has transcribed the controversial comments:

Let's take woman A. Woman A met Julian Assange, invited him back to her flat [apartment], gave him dinner, went to bed with him, had consensual sex with him. Claims that she woke up to him having sex with her again. This is something which can happen, you know.

I mean not everybody needs to be asked prior to each insertion. Some people believe that when you go to bed with somebody, take off your clothes, and have sex with them and then fall asleep, you're already in the sex game with them.

It might be really bad manners not to have tapped her on the shoulder and said, "do you mind if I do it again?". It might be really sordid and bad sexual etiquette, but whatever else it is, it is not rape or you bankrupt the term rape of all meaning. . .

I don’t consider it rape either. How was he suppose to know she found her morals after taking a short nap? She should have asked him to leave if she was done with him. I guess she hasn’t spent too many mornings naked in bed with a man.

Your comment is quite hilarious, at least in my mind.
BTW, I think one of the elements of the crime of rape is penetration without consent. Once consent to such an act is given, I don’t think it’s rape. Of course, if she says, during the deed, “get off me and die scumbag,” the gentlemanly thing to do is to stop. But most guys won’t do that. That’s bad manners.

Musloids can legally copulate with their deceased wives up to 6 hours after death.

Allah and Christiane Amanpour give the consent.

Pompeii: sleeping with women.

Yourself: asleep.
Everything south of Naples: asleep and sleeping with them.
Sleeping with women: as in the poems of Pascoli.
Sleeping with women: as in the rain, as in the snow.

On the starry foam, asleep and sleeping with them — sleeping with women.

As if that could be, the stones, the restaurant, asleep and sleeping with them,
Sleeping with women, as if they were knee
Arm and thigh asleep and sleeping with them, sleeping with women.
And the iris peg of the sea
Sleeping with women
And the diet pill of the tree
Sleeping with women
And the apology the goon the candlelight
The groan: asking you for the night, sleeping with women
Asleep and sleeping with them, the green tree
The iris, the swan: the building with its mouth open
Asleep with women, awake with man,
The sunlight, asleep and sleeping with them, the moving gong
The abacus, the crab, asleep and sleeping with them
And moving, and the moving van, in London, asleep with women
And intentions, inventions for sleeping with them
Lands sleeping with women, ants sleeping with women, Italo-Greek or
Anglo-French orchestras
Asleep with women, asleep and sleeping with them,
The foam and the sleet, asleep and sleeping with them,
The schoolboy’s poem, the crippled leg
Asleep and sleeping with them, sleeping with women

Asleep and sleeping with them.

Of this undreamed-of view: sleeping with a chorus
Of highly tuned women, asleep and sleeping with them.
Bees, sleeping with women
And tourists, sleeping with them
Soap, sleeping with women; beds, sleeping with women
The universe: a choice
The headline: a voice, sleeping with women
At dawn, sleeping with women, asleep and sleeping with them.
Sleeping with women: a choice, as of a mule
As of an island, asleep or sleeping with them, as of a Russia,
As of an island, as of a drum: a choice of views: asleep and sleeping with
them, as of high noon, as of a choice, as of variety, as of the sunlight, red
student, asleep and sleeping with them,
As with an orchid, as with an oriole, at school, sleeping with women, and you
are the one
The one sleeping with women, in Mexico, sleeping with women
The ghost land, the vectors, sleeping with women
The motel man, the viaduct, the sun
The universe: a question
The moat: a cathexis
What have we done? On Rhodes, man
On Samos, dog
Sleeping with women

The window, the windrow, the hedgerow, irretrievable blue,
Sleeping with women, the haymow, asleep and sleeping with them, the canal
Asleep and sleeping with them, the eagle’s feather, the dock’s weather, and the
glue:
Sleeping with you; asleep and sleeping with you: sleeping with women.
Sleeping with women, charming aspirin, as in the rain, as in the snow,
Asleep and sleeping with you: as if the crossbow, as of the moonlight
Sleeping with women: as if the tractate, as if d’Annunzio
Asleep and sleeping with you, asleep with women
Asleep and sleeping with you, asleep with women, asleep and sleeping with
you, sleeping with women
As if the sun, as of Venice and the Middle Ages’ “true
Renaissance had just barely walked by the yucca
Forest” asleep and sleeping with you
In China, on parade, sleeping with women
And in the sun, asleep and sleeping with you, sleeping with women,
Asleep with women, the docks, the alley, and the prude
Sleeping with women, asleep with them.
The dune god: sleeping with women
The dove: asleep and sleeping with them
Dials sleeping with women; cybernetic tiles asleep and sleeping with them
Naples: sleeping with women; the short of breath
Asleep and sleeping with you, sleeping with women
As if I were you — moon idealism
Sleeping with women, pieces of stageboard, sleeping with women
The silent bus ride, sleeping with you.
The chore: sleeping with women
The force of a disaster: sleeping with you
The organ grinder’s daughter: asleep with bitumen, sunshine, sleeping with
women,
Sleeping with women: in Greece, in China, in Italy, sleeping with blue
Red green orange and white women, sleeping with two
Three four and five women, sleeping on the outside
And on the inside of women, a violin, like a vista, women, sleeping with
women
In the month of May, in June, in July
Sleeping with women, “I watched my life go by” sleeping with women
A door of pine, a stormfilled valentine asleep and sleeping with them
“This Sunday heart of mine” profoundly dormoozed with them
They running and laughing, asleep and sleeping with them
“This idle heart of mine” insanely “shlamoozed” asleep and sleeping with them,
They running in laughter
To the nearest time, oh doors of eternity
Oh young women’s doors of my own time! sleeping with women
Asleep and sleeping with them, all Naples asleep and sleeping with them,
Venice sleeping with women, Burgos sleeping with women, Lausanne sleeping
with women, hail depth-divers
Sleeping with women, and there is the bonfire of Crete
Catching divorce in its fingers, purple sleeping with women
And the red lights of dawn, have you ever seen them, green ports sleeping with
women, acrobats and pawns,
You had not known it ere I told it you asleep with women
The Via Appia Antica asleep with women, asleep and sleeping with them
All beautiful objects, each ugly object, the intelligent world,
The arena of the spirits, the dietetic whisky, the storms
Sleeping with women, asleep and sleeping with them,
Sleeping with women. And the churches in Antigua, sleeping with women
The stone: a vow
The Nereid: a promise — to sleep with women
The cold — a convention: sleeping with women
The carriage: sleeping with women
The time: sometimes
The certainty: now
The soapbox: sleeping with women
The time and again nubile and time, sleeping with women, and the time now
Asleep and sleeping with them, asleep and asleep, sleeping with women, sleep and sleeping with them, sleeping with women.

You’re not well, to put it mildly.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Conservatives as we are, we seem to have a way of letting our values get in the way of fact.

The fact is there is not a court in any free common law nation that would convict Assange of rape in a fair trial.

The fact is that the alleged victim had consensual sex with Assange, remained in the same bed sleeping with him ( this is actual consent to the 2nd episode of sex by the alleged victims action, not even implied consent, according to law).

You can have all the moralistic wet dreams you want. Given these facts , Assange is not guilty of rape, even though he is a scumbag for other reasons.

You are not well, to put it mildly.

Wrong.

There is no law in the Western world that provides for such a finding.

You are not well, to put it mildly.

I'm not the one who believes that it's all well and good to molest a sleeping woman.

I guess in your "mind" I have a consciousness fetish or something.
