    Question

    Under Section 63, which of the following acts would NOT

    constitute rape even if committed against a woman's will?
    A Penetrating penis into the woman's mouth Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Inserting a finger into the woman's vagina Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Applying mouth to the woman's vagina Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Touching the woman's breast without penetration Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Making the woman insert an object into her own vagina Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Section 63 defines rape through four specific physical acts: (a) penile penetration into vagina, mouth, urethra or anus; (b) insertion of objects/body parts other than penis into vagina, urethra or anus; (c) manipulation causing penetration; and (d) applying mouth to vagina, anus, or urethra. All require some form of penetration or oral contact with specified body parts. Mere touching of breasts without penetration does not fall within these definitions.
