. No. It wasn't even a factor in the Swarthmore case. That's why its a straw man.

I get that the Swathmore case is difficult because of the relationship the two had previously had; I know lines aren't always so clearly drawn in the sand. But, in my opinion, when a woman says no and a man has sex with her anyway, that's rape whether the woman physically fought back or not.

How about when the situation is reversed? A woman initiates, the man says no, and the woman persists? Is that rape?
