Differing degrees of rape?

[Chad32]

I think the details of pretty much any crime matter just as much as the crime itsself. This includes rape. Some new couple where they're both horny, and the girl starts saying no, but the guy feels like maybe if he just does it right she'll change her mind. It's rape and it's wrong, and he should be made to realize it was wrong, but it's still different from some guy raping a random woman in an alley with a knife to her throat. And statutory rape is a bit different from regular rape too, because no matter how much the younger person really really wants it, they can't give legal consent.

One of the most common excuses I hear is "she was asking for it by wearing what she wore". This doesn't fly with me. If I see a woman walking down the street butt naked, it's still up to me to restrain myself, so I don't buy that a woman is asking for it if her skirt is a bit short or she shows some cleavage. Is there a rape epidemic on beaches where women wear bikinis? Not that I've heard.
