Ok, I went back and read what she had to say. I thought she was talking about rape, but it turns out she was talking about power and she seems to have some fucked up notion that exertion of power involves consent of the other person.
She keeps using that word. I do not think it means what she thinks it means.
Clarification: Rape always is always without consent. Exertion of power may or may not be with consent, and it depends on the fact pattern. She was using it as with consent, but didnt' clarify that it's sometimes exerted without consent. Your fact pattern involves coersion, which for crim law purposes, may not rise to the level of lack of consent, but is still an inappropriate use of power.
