A thread triggered this for me so I have decided to ask the question. If you consent to be paid for sex but don't feel like sleeping with the customer, are you being raped?

Not always, but often, I would say. How many prostitutes are coerced in some way - either outright or through drugs/financial issues etc. I would have thought most. So yes, that makes it rape imo, since there's nothing to stop men who use prostitutes realising the same thing. They just don't care.

Erm no because the prostitute is consenting

No, not if the prostitute is consenting.

No - because you are consenting.
