I agree Jimmy. the Judge has some freedom to set the sentence according to the severity of the particular circumstances anyway without the need to create a 2 tier system.

arguably, rape between 2 previously consenting parties is worse due to the breach of trust which will likely be involved. From experience, very, very few rapes are committed with the use of actual physical force (or only with minimal force); it is the will that is overborne - how much easier is this if the victim has been in a relationship with the rapist?
