While rape is obviously a horrific problem our society needs to solve, there is a frightening precedent when you say that consent has to literally be vocalized. Let's be realistic. Has anyone here, during foreplay, stopped to say, "Would you like to have sexual intercourse?" It's unrealistic.
Rape can drastically change a woman's life. So can being falsely accused of rape. I know men who have lost their families, jobs, home and respect of their peers as a result of being falsely accused of rape.
Are you living in a bubble, "M"??? It is foreplay when she's a participant, not when she's restrained, struggling, terrified and begging for her life!
