Rape (Section 130.25/.30/.35) is an act of sexual intercourse with a person against his/her will and consent, whether his/her will is overcome by force or fear resulting from the threat of force, or by drugs administered without consent, or when, because of mental deficiency, s/he is incapable of consent, or when s/he is below the arbitrary age of consent, or when s/he is unconscious or otherwise physically unable to communicate willingness. Be aware that having sex with someone who is unable to give consent by being mentally incapacitated or unconscious (passed out) is rape. New York State law recognizes that a married woman can be raped by her husband. Marriage does not necessarily imply consent. Note that the threat of force is sufficient; many women report fearing for their lives even when their attacker is not carrying a weapon. The penalties for violations of these sections range from imprisonment for a period not to exceed four years up to imprisonment for a period not to exceed 25 years.
