[edit] Surprise sex

This is per its own defintion not different from rape.

• Delete. Not enough information to convince me that it's any different from rape. Doozer 22:31, 15 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Plus there's no indication the term is used anywhere except northeast Scotland. Rlw 22:40, May 15, 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to rape. -- BD2412 ^thimkact 22:47, 2005 May 15 (UTC)
• Redirect to Rape. JYolkowski // talk 22:52, 15 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete - unless verified, never heard of it - and I'm Scottish. I don't know that a redirect to rape is appropriate - whether 'sex without consent' is always rape has been a contentious point of law in Scotland and elsewhere. --Doc Glasgow 22:59, 15 May 2005 (UTC)
  • This debate is discussed in the rape article. -- BD2412 ^thimkact 23:09, 2005 May 15 (UTC)

• Delete for obvious reasons--Heathcliff 03:12, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, no redirect, no merge. --Angr/_comhrá 04:51, 16 May 2005 (UTC)

• Redirect to sex. Jessicab 02:48, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to Rape. I'm willing to accept that I don't know the Scots use this term in the way it's described, but I don't think there's enough difference to separate them. --Unfocused 03:39, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Question: If this is unnotable or unverified - then does it merit a redirection anywhere?--Doc Glasgow 09:17, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
    • I'm willing to accept that the original poster may have information about which I am currently ignorant, for the tiny cost of a redirect. If it weren't so similar to a current article, I'd also say delete, which is a result here that would not disappoint me. With all the VfD spam re: schools, I don't have the time to research my foggy recollection of a recent news article regarding non-consensual sex being defended as something other than rape. --Unfocused 12:35, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
• Begin article removal. For those who don't know, "article removal" is removal of an article from Wikipedia. It is often confused with deletion. Article removal is simply the removing of an article and its history from wikipedia following a vote on the issue in which a consensus to remove the article is made. It is a colloquial term used only by R. fiend. -R. fiend 21:48, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
