I think that would be for each individual to decide, meaning you. If you think that a woman being taken against her will is rape, then it is...regardless of whether the "law" says so or not. I know it wouldn't take the government's acknowledgement for me to know whether or not I was raped.
There have been planty of laws on the books in this country throughout it's history that have been immoral, unjust and downright disgusting. Just because they were laws doesn't mean that the actions they allowed for were right. If it weren't for people using their own brains and sense of individual morality to shake things up and initiate challenges to such laws, this nation would have never made the progress that it has.
