Why all this legalistic argument?
Because I'm not so niave to think that a "woman" wouldn't change her mind in a heart beat and go from "consenting" to "non-consenting" if it means a fat check in her back pocket.

Nonwithstanding the fact that saying "no" when you really mean "yes, pursue me more" is fucking ridiculous, it opens the reciever up for legal liability. If I were having sex with a girl and she were screaming "NO! NO! NO!" in a moaning, pleasured, ecstatic way.. I'd stop. She said no, if I keep going.. I'm raping her. Even if she's consenting now. You keep going man.. and in 5 years when your relationship is on the rocks you'll be having a sharply dressed prick at your door with a court summons. Don't be so niave as to think it can't happen.

(that's why I think courting has died, for me)
