If someone is asleep and someone has sex with them without their explicit consent (remember that not saying no is not a factor here), it is rape. I can't believe you would even try to debate that and it doesn't make it look like you have the best interests of rape victims in mind.

So how about those other two very clear instances of victim blaming that I pointed out to you?
