So let's say for example that your wife would dump you if you cheated on her, but you withhold that information and kept having sex with her... Would that count as a rape by manipulation?
All rape is by manipulation. But this is a good point, I have long felt that the kinds of people who take advantage of a situation for sexual gain, whether it be by lying about being a doctor to impress somebody, or paying somebody, or blackmailing somebody, they're not a million miles away from a rapist. My general rule is, if I have to talk/manipulate/coerce a girl into sleeping with me, then I won't, because she seemingly doesn't want to and I don't think I'd be into sleeping with a girl who can't wait for the thing to be over. Maybe it's an ego thing, I like to be wanted.
