So long as the concept of consent exists, yes.

But as was previously stated, it's not an objective natural law, it's entirely encompassed within the interactions of sentient beings.

I accept your answer just fine, but it differs with your conclusion. You conclude that for all advanced sentient beings rape is wrong, regardless of time location or public opinion. This is a truth you present as being without exception in time or space... making it universally true. How is it that there exists a truth that is larger than every advance civilization in the universe?

Not serious? Did you actually read his answer?

Yes, I don't regard the discussion of the rape of a rock as serious Wink Therefore I narrowed it in terms that eliminate the rock from the equation Smile
Do you recall what was revealed the day the music died?
