Definitely, any time she can stop the action, no means NO!!!!
And if she has regrets about the "consensual-rendezvous", a claim of rape is totally justified.
I don't agree with the second part. If a someone wants to stop, they need to communicate that as soon as they want to stop. People aren't mind-readers.

You consented? you consented.., You didnt consent, its rape.. it can ruin lives when someone regrets it after the fact, when it wasnt rape. apparently to some, screwing up a guys life sounds like fun wr something. Shameful, really!
how about: have any doubts on wether you want to have sex or not? DONT!

There are many reasons why consent would be withdrawn that have nothing to do with ambivalence over having sex. Maybe the condom broke, maybe s/he has to use the washroom, maybe there's a physical issue, maybe the partner is being way too rough, maybe there's an emergency of some sort, etc.
Of course, they need to verbally and clearly tell the other person to stop. That draws the line that separates "not rape" and "rape". If the partner doesn't immediately back off, that line is being crossed.
I'm talking about withdrawing consent DURING sex, not AFTER it.
I wasn't being serious...just a joke to mock how people use the social contract to say non-consensual activities are actually consensual. I don't consent to a lot of things that are forced on me, but people try to tell me I have by not moving.
So yes, I do believe men or women should be allowed to revoke consent during sex, but obviously not after. It can get a little more complicated when it comes to real contracts, like if I signed something saying some person could have sex with me whenever they want for the next year, and then after a few months I change my mind...but that's sort of over-complicating things for the point of this topic.
I don't think many Juries could be convinced to a level of beyond reasonable doubt and 99% certainty in such cases. Indeed many cases are already difficult enough to prove.
Such cases re based on one persons account of events against that of another, and we can not just blindly believe one party over another, without any real evidence, especially when someines entire life can hinge on such a decision. Indeed such decisions can lead to substantial prison entences and for individuals to be on sex offenders registers and to have lifelong criminal records.

I'm still kind of reeling and incredulous at the actual question;
"Should women be allowed to change their minds during sex".
I mean....WHAT?
Possibly one of the stupidest and nonsensical questions I've ever heard. What kind of a person thinks it's okay for a man to just carry on? And if women want to change their minds they don't need flippin' permission! Jeez.
What kind of person? Apparently 18 people (so far) responding to this thread. Makes one wonder the kinds of people with whom we are corresponding.
