To sum it up, the woman needs to do her part in resisting if she is able. .

What if the bloke is some 6'6" muscle bound ox, and the girl a little petit 5' girly? I can think of many situations where people have gone into sex only wanting to because the other is putting pressure on them to do so.
Would you prefer it for that girl to try and physically resist that bloke? Granted its an extreme example, but being able is not always a luxury.
As to the post by KnifeMissile, we invented your legal system, innocent until proven guilty is the same over here. However, because our legal system sucks, the actual level of rape prosecutions compared to complaints is microscopic (single percentage figures).
Rape here is defined, paraphrased as 'pentration without consent', on any part of the body. Key part, without consent. With any law there will be abuses, and those people deserve to be punished. But i do believe that this type of law is better in the long run.
