Sure rape doesn't have to be the main issue to count. I guess what I was trying to say is that I just wouldn't classify it as rape. I also wouldn't classify it as rape if someone had a relationship/sex while undercover for example (which for example can happen with long term undercover law enforcement). Or if someone lied/fabricated evidence/etc. to keep a relationship going, that would otherwise have ended. Both of these thing are of course severely fucked up, but I wouldn't really call them rape.

I feel like the Willow/Tara situation is more in line with these, than with putting someone in danger via undisclosed STD or the pretend doctor. At the end of the day it's really hard to put real life terms on magic anyways so maybe, its a moot point to argue.

I mean, it may be hard to visualize in real world terms but I don't think defining how magic acts on a person, and how that works as a understanding of consent is actually hard. Bottom line is you don't think anything less than active consent violations within sexual encounters to the encounter are rape, and that's certainly a framing you can have on consent. I think active manipulation is a violation of consent if it removes the ability to make an informed decision on saying yes, and in sexual encounters, therefore rape (although difficult to make criminal). The magic is irrelevant except that you don't think it was relevant to the consent, and I do. I don't think that's actually a grey area, or an area of nuance, that's straight up we don't think the same about acting on other people's wills or circumstances and how that impacts their ability to say yes.
