Yes, which is why it's more fruitful to say willing or unwilling. You people have misused the word so much it has lost meaning. Congratulations.
It's dumb how someone can be 'raped' in one jurisdiction, but not raped in another.
People want to conflate rape with having sex with 17 year olds because it elicits shock value in those who don't know any better.

Man admitted to killing his wife during prohibition after she divorced him while he was in jail and sold all of his belongings.
He was acquitted.
To be fair, females tend to regret having sex in their teenage years way more often than males.
It’s almost as if the system expects a greater level of maturity and accountability from Black male juveniles than it does adult white women.
What a great way of putting it.
Statutory rape is not the same as having sex with someone against their will.
We should be saying "willing" or "unwilling" to get this point across without seeming like we're trying to manipulate others.
So it's rape in some places but not others?
Weird how rape works.
Seems like the system is working fine here.
