I didn’t say it was trivial to prove.

I said consent can be withdrawn, so even proof of intended consent isn’t proof of consent.

The burden of proof in rape cases is difficult - because I don’t think we should lower the burden of proof it in many cases the nature of the act means it is difficult to prove what actually happened.
