Sweden's new law that sex without consent is rape even when there are no threats or force comes into effect

A tough new law that will class sex without explicit consent as rape has come into effect in Sweden today.

It comes after the country was rocked by the #MeToo movement denouncing sexual harassment and assault.

The law stipulates that a person has committed rape if they have been part of a sexual act in which the other person has not participated 'freely'.

Rape had previously been defined as a sexual act carried out with the use of violence or threat.

Now for someone to face rape charges, 'it is no longer necessary that violence or threats were applied, or that the aggressor took advantage of the victim's particularly vulnerable situation,' according to the government.

Courts will need to pay particular attention to whether consent was expressed with words, gestures or in another manner, and judges will have to rule on the issue, according to the law passed in May.

Judge Anna Hannell, who helped create the law, said there was 'absolutely no requirement to formally say "yes", to hit a button in an app or anything else of the same type'.

'Simply participating physically is a sign of consent,' she told Swedish news agency TT.

More than 7,000 rapes were reported in Sweden last year, a 10 per cent increase compared to 2016, latest official figures show.

Rape is punishable by up to six years in prison, with a maximum penalty of 10 years if the victim is a minor.

Backed by the ruling Social Democrat-Green coalition, the law has drawn criticism from several quarters, including the Swedish lawyers' association and the national law council.

What's the big deal? I thought such law already exists. As far as I understand that applies to cases when woman is unconscious.

This new law applies to a wife who really does not want to have sex, and her husband persists by sticking it inside of her even though she physically does not participate. In Sweden this man will be sentenced for rape. Even if the woman is his wife.

In swedish we call this tjat-sex. Meaning that i ask for it so much that you give up and just let me have it without you participating physically. This in sweden is rape, a definition that i fully support.

Good job Sweden, other countries need to follow.

Northern women and southern women have different temperaments. Northern women may want sex, but long think, be shy and disagree. Therefore, a man sometimes has to persevere, warm the northern woman, but under Swedish law this is a crime, a persecution. Vikings will begin to fear sex, and in their place will come Somali invited workers who are used to mating, where they want, and when they want. Heated northern women will have sex only with hot black people.

Come on, this is funny. We know that "northern" women are more liberal women. Besides that if couple wants to make a baby they will do that job willingly.

I already said what I think this law applies to.
