Secondly, the potential for spread of disease is far greater with actual penetration.
Might I ask why this is important to the topic at hand?
Because it seems odd to me to distinguish between sexual penetrations based on the material of the object that is penetrating your vagina/anus.
The spread of disease can't be it, because rape isn't all that meaningfully less traumatic if the victim knows that the rapist is disease-free.
Aversion to physical contact with skin, though? It matters if he wears a condom? It matters if he rapes you with a prosthetic penis? It matters if he rapes you with a prosthetic penis in a condom?
