Expert Solution

Introduction

Any form of the sexual activity requires consent like for example rape is a forceful sexual exchange that takes place between the victim and the perpetrator who rape the other person, and this whole process takes place without the consent of the other person, hence it is termed as rape.

Thus in sexual activity, consent becomes very important, even in a marital relationship both partners need to have a consensual attachment, otherwise, at times marital rape is also considered illegal. Even as described above in a therapeutic setting while engaging in a sexual act consent is highly needed,
