If a man woman couple heterosexual or gay were having consenting sex and enjoying it but the woman seconds away from touch down and she has sz or about to have one and then remembers only little bits would that be classed as rape in court.
She he initiated it but assumed the other would stop if something like this happened even if it never been discussed could that be construed as rape at that particular moment
 
Um, odd question. Not personal experience I hope.

It seems to me that the person accused of rape would have to be aware that the other person was non compos mentis at that moment (and continued on anyway). That would be difficult to prove.

Hmm, for me just the thought of the woman going into a seizure during sex would make me limp.

:piano: :pop:
 
This question in philosophy book ,how court wold view.even few peti mal or just a awareness of conunsiness.she could say was about to have one or she said yes to act she not aware of or they always did it same time and place for years and this the one time during the act she would have said no or has no memory what so ever of sex until she was told later(you don't need e to have unmemorial sex)
The person with e could be equally as bad by saying he took advantage you no prove it.In same area what if judge or jury member had couple peti mal that could be all the difference between guilty non guilty
In my lifetime a marriage could be annulled if person had e so we only generation further on I also remember a hospital(st Faiths) you see patents walking around town if one of those people been raped not cat in hells chance been believed and that was in 70s
 
Sorry this flipping iPad is not doing as it told,Altering right spelling to wrong changing grammar.If write it again still look wrong
 
I suppose it would depend on what type of seizure we are talking about too. It would be pretty difficult to claim (as the guy) that you didn't know she was having a grand mal but it might be easy to miss an absence seizure while "in the moment".
 
If a woman were about to orgasm then has a seizure, how would that be considered rape at all? I've never been raped thank god, but I would guess all someone would feel is fear while going through such a horrible thing. Being close to climax sounds completely consensual.

I can't remember who it was, and she might have been joking when she said her husband enjoyed the time she had one during sex. It didn't bother her at all, she thought it was funny and could laugh about it. But like I said, she might have just been kidding.

I will reread your post, I might have just misunderstood it.
 
I just reread your post. Was she abused, like sore/bleeding/bruised? I guess it all just depends so hell if I know...

If this did happen, I hope the guy was respectful and didn't do anything to take advantage..
 
I'd say it depends on your lawyer, how convincing is he/she that this did/did not happen? And why would anyone really want to go to court over something like this, unless they were truly injured, physically/psychologically?

I think here in the US this type of case would be thrown out for lack of evidence.

I meant to say the man not woman
 
Since there was consent on both sides and the deed started before the seizure, it seems to me it can't be considered as rape.

Yes good point but what if is physical psychological as you just pointed out or even down right vindictive.
if woman had said some point what her aura of fit was like what to look for and he ignored it or on other hand he well use d to her e and carried on .In my view if he was aware of signs he should stop at any point in sexual act excuse pun get some balls and control himself

Some could argue it is like a "date rape". Sort of reminds me of the Bill Cosby accusers here in the U.S. They remember having drinks with him. Next thing they know, they're in bed with him without their clothes. They only remember bits of the story. Did he or did he not rape them after he drugged them?
 
Yes date rape was in my mind Bill Cosby (may he rot in prison) but am aware for man it could be at crusual time he could argue no turning back.i disagree.The mining
 
Cosby a slam dunk,but date rape I agree it could be constude something like that.I have daughter if due to e and he carried on I would hang I him up by nuts but I have son aswell I would fight tooth and nail it was unfortunate mistake he went to boys school young and not a clue with body language as far as girls concerned.Very grey are judge need be Solomon

I agree with this. Now if the man/woman was having the seizure before you started having sex then it might be a different story, don't know for sure though.

My husband and I started having sex before I had the seizure. When the seizure started I began going crazy and he thought I was just really getting into things. It wasn't until a few seconds before he was ready to finish off when he realized that I was having the seizure but it was too late for him to stop.

I knew we were having sex but didn't know that I'd had the seizure until he told me. We actually get a good laugh about it now!
