That kind of seems like a cop-out, by the way. Not on your part, but on the woman's part.

I can't personally. I had a contemporary women's class this semester taught by a woman on our campus who runs the Women's Center, runs the confidential hotline on campus and also works with the county rape crisis hotline. She knows what there is to know.
Frottage, for example. A guy comes up behind a girl in a club and starts dancing with her in a way that has non-consensual sexual touching. If she pushes him away or moves away from him, this is seen as a no. It's taken into consideration as this atmosphere has loud music, and verbal conversation is not as clear as physical.
No can really be made clear if that's what you want to get across. I agree that just saying it can be simpler, but body language is still taken into account.
