Theoretically, could a doctor tell the difference between the result of varying degrees of rough sex and rape?

Asked by KatawaGrey (21483points) March 30th, 2009

I know that during rape there is vaginal tearing sometimes. Is this similar to what happens during rough sex? Does the tearing come from the victim’s struggle or is it purely caused by the rapist? If it is purely caused by the rapist, could the same thing happen to a woman who is having consensual sex that is somewhat violent?
