I dont know how much more simply I can make the statement. Whatever scenario, however badly the woman behaves and however innocent the male is, it isnt possible. Rape is defined as penetrative assault. A man can be raped by another man, but not by a woman.

In terms of the scenario with the sexy woman grabbing me... there are different levels of consent. I would be biologically consenting but not verbally consenting. As a society we require verbal consent to be in place or implied - and this is quite right.
But in that scenario, I could either tell the woman to get off or push her off.

OHHH!!!! That's where all the confusion is coming from. Had I known you didn't know what rape was from the start, we could have cut this conversation much shorter. Rape has got nothing to do with penetration, other than it's part of the definition of the act of sexual intercourse. Rape is when sexual intercourse takes place with at least one party being non-consenting. Either they were unable to consent (physically incapacitated or ineligible to consent such as the case of small children) or their withholding of consent was ignored.
PS: Anyone who can get an erection can have penetrative sex (I suppose this is in opposition to unpenetrative sex? whatever that is). Males are capable of erections from birth.
