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.
Right. I would agree that that is a clear 'No'. But body language is not always clear...and it's one of the 'gray areas' that can be turned against an innocent person.
