Idiotic examples.

Whether or not there are exceptions, you didn't hit on one.

Statutory sexual offense was not what the OP was talking about. The definitions of this vary from state to state and entering this into the debate is a red herring. The OP was talking about violent and forced encounters.

Fantasy roleplay is an entirely different concern. No one I know that indulges in this behavoir has an 'always on' rule with regard to playing out their scenes. The initiation of the scenes is such that they prepare in advance so the other scenario you describe is entirely implausible and does not affect my opnion about consent and force and violence.

Violence is wrong. Done. End of friggin sentence.
