Different nation, different laws.

As the article notes, most of the precedence is for fraud - as in, any lies told to get someone into bed are actionable, but they’re fraud, not rape. It’s the rape attachment that bothers Israeli jurists (according to Haaretz, apply appropriate grains of salt, etc.)

Sorry, wasn’t clear— the rape attachment is what bothers me too. I really shouldn’t opine on this at all til I can get into it more deeply (i saved your links and others, thanks for them)
