So if a girl gets pregnant and regrets it then she didn't want to have that particular sex, therefore it was rape?
Calm down. 😆
I was clearly illustrating the path that such reasoning leads to.
If you start your reasoning out as such and then use a faulty "connector", then you end up stating things like "the set of all unwanted sex = rape" which is CLEARLY not true. This is why it is posed as a question, not a statement.

Possibly, too charged of a an example as well. I'll pick a different one.But lets pick a more concrete alternate example. I tell a woman I'm an fireman and she has sex with me because of that (I'm not really an fireman). Is that rape? How about if I promise to marry her? If I'm secretly a Nazi and she doesn't want to have sex with Nazis?
People lie or selectively reveal things about themselves in order to have sex all the time.
Yes, this was more along my point and why I ended in a question: I thought of "guy lies about being of such and such profession and gets laid because of it" ALSO being in the set of "unwanted sex."

Well...for most intents and purposes. There are multiple ways that they are not "male", still. I prefer the term "transexual" and that still only gets rid of one or two of the ways (their privates and chest) they are still not male (you sort of touched on this, earlier). hormone therapy+ surgery combo for best results? Still not enough: there are still multiple ways they are still male. It's hard to get rid of what your DNA gave you in a very complete manner. For that, I hope future medicine can provide a more perfect relief.
