I agree with the above.

It's difficult to say whether it would be classed as rape, legally, as that would depend on where you are and how the law in your area defines rape.

But outside of the legalities, rape is when sex occurs without consent. Consent is when you really want to have sex with the other person and this is shown in what you say and do and your body language- that you are reciprocating and are just as enthusiastic as the other person (you may want to look up enthusiastic consent). You also can't consent if you are heavily under the influence of alcohol or drugs or you are under the age of consent in your area.

Consent is not the abscence of this as in 'you didn't say no' and it's not feeling pressured to say yes, or 'giving in' when the person has persisted. In these situations, your feelings (that you don't want to have sex) are not being respected and the person has put themselves and want they want before you. This is not healthy, or equal and is abusive.

Hope you are okay
