RE: There are all “kinds” of unlawful sexual intercourse in Israel, from: (A) traditional rape; (B) age-related issues; (C) drug/special persons who cannot consent (e.g., mentally ill); (D) rape by fraud (e.g., pretending to be someone you are not), etc.
Does forcing yourself on an acquaintance (the subject of the poll ) belong to the category of A above ?
I would say it SHOULD. After all, if FORCE is being used, then I can’t think of putting it in any other category whether the person knows you or not.
I think the criminal penalties are the same for “acquantance rape” vs. “stranger rape”, but the colloquial name of the charge is different.
I’m not a lawyer, but I know some lawyers in Israel, and will ask.
