NO means No.

[John Valentine]

You are a hopeless ideologue.

It is very clear to me that LEGAL consent to sex cannot be withdrawn during the act; that is to say that, sure, the woman can inform that man that she wants to stop, as there are very many reasons why this could be so: vaginal dryness, leg cramps, and even boredom.

And the male partner ought to comply as a matter of manners and kindness, but if he does not or cannot, this should not - must not be criminalized, or the very idea of the CRIME of rape is trivialized beyond recognition.
