Lets be clear for a fucking second because I am so fucking sick of people not GETTING it.
If sex comes from anything but a clear "yes", it's a no. And if it's a no, it's rape.
If they say "no", it's rape.
If they say "I'm too drunk/high", it's rape.

If they are sleeping, it's rape.
If they feel guilty because you threw a fit last time they said no, it's rape.

Even if they're your spouse and they do any of the above, it's rape.

YES. IF IT IS ANYTHING OTHER THAN A CLEAR YES, IT IS RAPE.
Rape is not always violent. In fact, it often isn't. But it is always wrong.
