        There’s no such thing as nonconsensual sex. If someone doesn’t consent, it’s not sex, it’s rape. Calling it “nonconsensual sex” is like calling robbing a bank a “nonconsensual loan”. Stop it.

        Well we live in a Country where lies are turned into Alternative Facts🙄😕 After reading article I think #Sweden is trying to change the culture, the mindset Make doubly sure you have consent Also to prove consent wasn't given MAY BE an easier burden of proof #SexWithoutConsent

        I’ve heard this law had been put in place due to influx of economic migrants with different values towards women than perhaps traditionally accepted in Europe.

        And that is as it happens just rumours. These laws have been discussed here in Sweden for ages since they have been too vague.

        Colour me old fashioned, but I thought the literal definition of rape was sex without consent, if there is consent there is no rape. What’s new here?

        Though that was the very definition of rape (except in cases of statutory rape where consent however manifest cannot be given by an underage party to the act)

        How will that consent be proven? Will there be a letter signed by both parties? Will there be CCTV cameras around them? Please let us talk better things. No wonder the Nigerian President said his youths are lazy. Bringing things like these that cannot have a clear cut head is la
