What would you call it? I’m not saying I disagree fully, I’m just curious what you think this is? I think it fits the idea of rape by deception. She actively withheld information she knew would impact their relationship and she went to great lengths to conceal her race. He never had the chance to consent to being with who she really was. If it’s not rape by deception, is it fraud? Just wondering what else this could be considered.

I can’t find the words to articulate, but even though I think the character is in the wrong, I don’t think it’s at all comparable to not disclosing your sex.
