In most of your post you're talking about the Assange case. However the criticism the women made was that Melzer claimed the condom issue(s) was only a legal problem in Sweden, which is incorrect. Melzer's critics were not talking about the Assange case as it was irrelevant to Melzer's error. "And the consensual point is the one he preceded with when making his 'flippant' statement about what constituted rape. I believe he had a point. Consent is and should remain as the bottom line to whether or not rape is committed lest it do a serious disservice to actual rape victims (by cheapening the crime to legal red tape)." As I said there's plenty to discuss there about what the law might or should be - but he does not have a legal point. As a lawman, he should not be telling men and women the condom absence/removal can not be classed as a rape scenario anywhere but Sweden, as it's not the case. Cheers
