Pretty sure rape needs to be sticking the dick in a hole. Technically, in the UK, to the letter of the law, a female can't be a rapist.

Sexual assault can just be something as "insignificant" as pinching someone's arse as they pass you on the bus.

    Rape involves penetration of bodily orfices with pretty much anything. Also; involuntary with consideration about ability to consent.

    (Not sure if the UK narrows that definition in any way.)
