Make it illegal for women to rape a man.
The sexual offences act 2003 states that rape is: when a man intentionally penetrates the vagina, mouth or anus of another person. This is not inclusive of when a woman forces a man to sleep with them. Just because a man has an erection, does not mean they wan't to sleep with that woman.
Make it illegal for a woman to rape a man, or remove the term 'rape' entirely from the legal system and replace it with sexual assault, like you have in this situation.
