I'm sure things are subject to change and can make it to where the legal system can work like that.

I guess but I just don't think it's logical. I mean rape is not only one of the most under reported crimes, but it's so he said she said. There would be too many holes, not only could women accuse men they had consensual sex with of rape, but woman who were really raped might lose their cases anyway, and then they'd be stuck. I think it would just be the worst thing for our justice system to do.
EDIT: Also you are assuming that the rapist gets caught in the first place. While the majority of rapes are committed by someone the victim knows that doesn't mean that the victim sees who attacked them. And what about statutory rape?
