Differentiating between rape and just rough dominating sex.

Hello Staff,

First I wanted to thank you on the difficulty you go through every day or every time problems come up and the time and agony that it takes you as volunteers to sift through the information and make a judgement.

The other thing I wanted to ask, and since the thread on the discussion got closed too quickly for me to post this is what differentiates rape from rough or just dominating sex? I guess in my mind rape in the past would have been OOC'dly consented to, however IC it would not be. I have on occasion had PCs that had lovers that would enjoy a pretend rape type session (for lack of better words). These sessions were always consented to both OOC'dly and IC and both characters knew exactly what was involved and it was worked out in advance as to what the stopping point would be or where going too far was too far. Are these instances still acceptable?
