This doesn't track for me.
Rape, pedophilia, and sex trafficking have an element of non-consent or coercion. Infidelity does not when it's between two consenting adults. You are comparing apples to oranges.
Can all those things cause problems - yes - but infidelity is not the same as the others. On top of that - rape is NOT about sex, it's about violent control in which sex acts are used as the weapon.
