Only penetrative rape.
Are you sure? 'nonconsenusual sexual contact' sounds like it could cover more than penatrative rape.
I was misled by the article and couldn’t find the law. The APnews explanation is misleading.
Here is the actual law link:
https://legislation.nysenate.gov/pdf/bills/2023/S3161
Unfortunately the new law seems to only cover "anal, oral, and vaginal sexual contact". So unfortunately that totally excludes any kind of forced envelopment.
So when a woman puts her vagina on your penis nonconsensually, that doesn't count as non consensual vaginal contact?
I fully admit I could be wrong in this case, but frequently laws like this are interpreted as non-consensual contact to a vagina, making it only enforced in one direction. Re-reading this one it does seem to be attempting to make progress by removing the required penetrative element so here's hoping I am incorrect.
…am I missing something? How can a vagina envelope something without contacting it? Contact deffo happens during envelopement.
What's forced envelopment? Sounds like a thing I don't want to search.
Edit: Is that female on male rape? I just took a little longer to think about it.
It describes a situation where man has an involuntary erection and is forced into traditional intercourse. While most places in Canada/the US recognize forced anal penetration as rape, many do not recognize forced envelopment as rape.
