is there rape? (a: yes, usually...)

no, but the li assumes the mc is dtf just bc he's also gay and won't take no for an answer until he gets told he's not his type?
also, the mc got raped in the past & there was mentioned csa that happened to another (now adult) character

this is my first yaoi so i remember it vividly and blackmailing sb into sex is rape

not penetrative but sexual touching sb w/o their consent is rape even if you don't come from it and only masturbate yourself in your bathroom later...

no matter how hard you're pinning, rape is still rape...
