One night about 2 years ago, my (soon-to-be-ex) husband and I were getting ready for bed, and he wanted his "sleeping pill". I wasn't in the mood and I told him so, he said fine and laid down. I wasnt tired yet so I started reading a book. A few minutes later he rolls over and starts rubbing up on me, and again I tell him I was not in the mood. He didn't listen, and kept rubbing up on me, so I turned over, and scooted to the edge of the bed. He followed me and started rubbing up on me even more and eventually penetrated me, without my consent. I tensed up, pulled away from him, yelled at him, turned back over onto my back and told him to just get it over with. Afterwords, I felt really dirty. I went into the bathroom and cried in the shower. That was the last time I was ever physical with him, or any man really, and when I think about that night, I end up crying.
I know rape is forced sexual activity with out your consent, but my question is, was this rape? I didn't enjoy this. I just laid there like a zombie while he was gettin his rocks off, kinda zoned out. And I know he penetrated me with out my consent, but I did tell him to just get it over with so I wouldn't have to hear him gripe and complain and yell at me. I've never told anyone about this either.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
I'd actually go further than thecoolestgirl's therapist and say, "Did you give willing, informed, consent to penetration? No? Then it's rape."
It's not about saying "no", it's about not saying "yes" (and understanding what that means). You didn't give consent in the first instance, and when you later told him to "get it over with", that was under duress and so wasn't effective consent. Rape either way.
I'm so sorry you (and others) have had to endure this.
Hope your Ok.
