(Touching on actus reus, consent, mens rea – avoiding graphic details)

* What is rape in law?

* Is rape defined by force alone?

* How does the law define consent?

 

2. What Is Consent — Legally?

* Legal definition 

* Can consent be withdrawn?

* Is silence consent?

* Does intoxication invalidate consent?

* What about power imbalance (lecturer/student, boss/employee)?

 

3. Evidence & Burden of Proof

* Why are rape cases difficult to prove?

* Is corroboration required?

* Why does credibility become central?

Clarify:

* Presumption of innocence

* Proof beyond reasonable doubt

* How do we protect victims while preserving fair trial rights?

 

4. Social & Cultural Layer

* Why do victims hesitate to report?

* What role does stigma play?

* Does social media help or complicate cases?

* Should public opinion influence how sexual offence cases are handled?

 

5. False Allegations 

* How common are false allegations legally?

* How does the system guard against both injustice and disbelief?

 

6. Reform & Prevention

* Should sexual consent education be mandatory?

* Are our sentencing structures appropriate?

* What would improve the system?

 

ETHICAL QUESTIONS 

These can be asked at various intervals during the above discussions

* Is the law currently victim-centred, accused-centred, or balanced?

* Should intoxication automatically invalidate consent?

* Can consent exist within certain power imbalances?

* Does media coverage improve justice or distort it?

* Should rape trials be fully private?

 

MYTH v FACT

* If there are no injuries, it’s not rape.

* Delayed reporting means it didn’t happen.

* Previous relationship means ongoing consent.

* Marriage excludes rape.

* If there was previous sexual history, it matters.

* A victim must fight back physically.

* Rape cases are easy to win.
