Thank you for the compliment. I hope you feel this way after you read my other response to you. Frankly though, discussing rape is not my idea of fun.
"True but if the definition she or the DA uses for rape comes out of a woman's studies text or its equivalent..."
This is something you have said in at least one other response. Have you ever read a "woman's studies text"? I have not so I ask in all sincerity. I also did not enroll in a woman's study course in college.
In which women's studies text is rape defined as anything but a violent assault against a victim?
Where in the USA has there been a law enacted using text from a "woman's studies text" which legally re-defines rape as anything less than a violent assault against a victim?
Are you referring to "date rape?" Do you define rape only as an act committed by a stranger?
If a victim knows the assailant's name because they are neighbors, customers, classmates, friends of friends or on a first date, does that give the assailant a free pass to violently assault those acquaintances? What about on a second, third or fourth date? Is a violent assault acceptable then?
What if the assailant sees their victim at a swimming pool dressed in a swim suit? Because the victim is not wearing a lot of clothes, is this a sign that the victim enticed the assailant?
What happens to Wymyns Studies grads? They become lawyers, legislators and judges. Their influence is in primarily these areas. Their definition of rape is anything that makes the wymym uncomfortable. Their assumption is that no wymyn ever lies. Hence the situation where the woman gets drunk sleeps with someone else at the party regrets it several days latter and has the man charged with rape. Also, the accused's ability to challenge his accuser's allegations have been severely curtailed.

Of couse not. How did it come to you that this is what I was arguing?
"What if the assailant sees their victim at a swimming pool dressed in a swim suit? Because the victim is not wearing a lot of clothes, is this a sign that the victim enticed the assailant? "
But if said woman goes into a man's bedroom, proceeds to give him a lap dance, undoes the guy's pants and then later claims to have been raped. I think that is enticement.
