Up until last year (2016) in Germany, you needed to fight back and inflict physical damage in order to reject consent. You could shout no all you wanted, and even tried to run, but unless there was evidence of self defense, you had no case.
I'm sure there are other European countries that have similarly weak rape laws. And some States in the US still make spousal rape practically legal. --- "If history is to change, let it change!

You could shout no all you wanted, and even tried to run, but unless there was evidence of self defense, you had no case. Yeah, in Sweden people are still fighting for consent based laws. There have been cases where the rapists go free because the victim didn't "make it clear enough" they didn't want it. Even though the judge might comment that it was really clear. Frozen fright is a well known phenomenon, but if it happens to you then the law couldn't give a shit. --- Everything has an end, except for the sausage. It has two. ... Copied to Clipboard!

From what I've read about the case, it was basically just her word against his with no real evidence and the Judge ruled in his favour
