| Rath said: Can somebody clarify the charges slightly to me? I mean it says he 'used his body weight to hold her down' but to be honest that doesn't sound entirely unusual during consensual sex, if the man is on top then he pretty much is holding her down with his body weight. Do the charges involve her telling him to stop of physically implying that she wanted him to stop? |
Rape in Sweden is defined as...
"In sweden, you may not drug someone and have sex with them when they’re unconscious. You mat not use force to have sex with someone against their will. You may not use a weapon and threathen people to have sex with you. You may not rape your partner. You may not have sex with someone who is not of legal age to have sex if you yourself are older."

Only one of those would fit the bill.
