Ditto.

I think one of the reasons why so many guys are quick to say that most rape allegations are false is because they don't understand rape laws. I can't think of a single state where what happened to Amy wouldn't be considered rape.

I know I've posted this on GC before but -- if she does not verbally agree to sex, it's rape.

And if she says, in the middle of sex, "Stop, I don't want to do this anymore," and the guy doesn't stop, it is potentially rape.

(However, once the sex is over I believe the statute of limitations has passed. )

Furthermore, in many places, if the woman is intoxicated she is unable to legally give consent for sex -- that is, any sex with a drunk woman could potentially be prosecuted as rape. (I am not sure how much this one is actually enforced, since despite it being a law on the books, most people would condemn her for the drunkenness -- but you should still be aware of it.)

You may argue about the fairness of laws like this, but they are valid in almost every single state and if you don't comply with them, you are at risk of getting charged with rape.
