I understand what you are saying, krwlz. The word rape carries a strong image. However, unless the word is used falsely, it shouldn't be denied.
For an assault victim, using the words 'not consentual' doesn't well describe the violation and damage done to him/her.
And it's not so much this case that bothers me, but rather, the precedent that may follow.
When a child points to an abuser and says 'that man had non-consensual sex with me' does it really accurately describe what happened?
