• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

If a man and woman are alone together, and the man makes it known that he wants to have sex, and the woman says no repeatedly, and he uses slight physical force (pushing her gently, holding her arms, meaning he isn't pinning her down or beating her unconscious, she isn't screaming or clawing his eyes out, etc) on her until she gives in, is this considered rape?

Me Personally I would say that is rape, because a man doesn't have to physically beat on a woman for it to be rape, I mean there are other factors, like emotionally and physically (his size/ or thought of power or the thought of him hurting them).


I think if a man is pursing a women and she turns him down and tells him no, he should stop and shouldn't be going father, even without yelling at the top of your lungs or anything like that, you made it clear that you didn't want to. But, still he disrespected the person and still raped them.


If you would like to talk feel free to PM me.

Yep. Thats rape.

Any form of non consentual sex is rape.

There is even a case in law where a man broke into a woman's room, and told her he was going to rape her, and she said, "please don't hurt me, just please use a condom". He did, and when it went to court, he claimed this implied consent, that he had met a stipulation, but it was the court's opinion that it was still rape, because she didn't consent.

You don't have to be screaming and clawing his eyes out for it to be rape. All it takes for it to be rape is when someone has sex with you when you don't, or can't, consent.
