98. According to her statement, she NEVER gave prior consent for sex

WITHOUT a condom. He had no basis for assuming that she would consent to that in the morning, after arguing about that the night before.

By the time she woke up to find he had penetrated her without a condom, it was too late -- the rape had already occurred. That she allowed him to continue doesn't change the fact that he penetrated her without a condom while she was sleeping, even though he knew her consent had been conditional on condom use.

It isn't obvious to me at all from her quote that she didn't have serious objections -- just that she thought it was pointless to express them, given the situation. And from everything she said, she was probably right. He was a large man, and on top of her and already inside her. It was easier to let him get it over with. But when he entered her, it was rape.
