.."unless there was violence or the threat of violence, or physical force, used, date rape should be treated differently. It is not quite rape if a woman who had the physical strength to prevent penetration and depart the scene simply gave up resisting a persistent man, without real belief that she was in danger."

"Who had the physical strength", or gave in for reasons other then being forced. Persistent demands that don't involve force or threat are not the same as force or threat and reluctantly complying with those demands isn't quite the same thing as being forced.

But then you where talking about a woman who was "unable to prevent vaginal or anal penetration to which she very much objects." And "very much objects" is not the same as "isn't really exited about at the moment", or "grudgingly accepts".
