No, I don't think it clearly semi-consensual rape at all. What if both of you are drunk and neither one completely remembers what happened? This sort of stuff happens all the time. Statutory rape is another example of a difficult case.
I don't know if you guys are aware, but stuff like this happens all the time. Life is complicated. I am not saying that people should take the mans side more than the womens, but life is complicated. That is just the way it is.
The Bible accepts this and does not side with either man or women. Any woman who is pissed off at her boyfriend can say that she was raped or try and fit certain circumstances together to show something.
I'm sorry that everything can't fit into your irrationalist PC world, but that is just the way it is.
You should be aware that there is no reason to think that women, on average, are more honest than men are. The Bible realizes the nature of promiscuous relationships and simply calls it marriage. But in clear cases of completely non-consensual rape, as in the women in Deut 28 who is not punished but the man who is put to death.
You atheist think that you are the merciful ones, but actually, the Bible is what is merciful. These texts show a compassionate God who is not biased against men and does not have naive views about women, the way that many modern liberals do. I am not saying that men are the oppressed group, typically women are. But life is complicated, you cannot generalize about people. The Bible is merciful because it doesn't see human behavior in black and white, it treats a complex situation like a promiscuous relationship with complexity, not with political platitudes.
