Should there be a separate criminal offence of date rape?

Question

Should there be a separate criminal offence of date rape?

Answer 1

What makes *date rape* different than any other type of rape?

Are there even different types of rape at all?    

Seems to me that rape is rape -- it doesn't matter whether it happens during a date, or not.

Answer 2

Of course not.   Rape is RAPE.  There are different levels of Criminal Sexual Conduct, but still, all are RAPE.

Answer 3

No.

Sorry but you don't get off easy because you bought her dinner before you raped her.

Rape is Rape.  

Answer 4

Nope, it's classified as rape, what is the point of creating a new sub-category of rape?  

Answer 5

No but you should get charged for two things, poisoning someone and raping them

Answer 6

Rape is rape.  Why would you even ask the question?
