There is a LOT of confusion over what does and doesn't constitute sexual assault. It is a very gray area that is open to a lot of interpretation. Which is a big part of the problem. A lot of the wording says "unwanted" attention...but doesn't clarify if it matters when the attention becomes unwanted. In the situation in the OP, for example...that does happen. But it's rare. There are extreme folks out there who say that women can't consent period, and that any sexual act against them is rape.
The truth, of course, is somewhere in the middle. Rape is pretty easy to define...sexual assault is not.
