The World Assembly,
IN ACCORDANCE with all semblances of common human decency and dignity, including the right to control one's body and the right to consent to or refuse sexual advances.
DECLARES all forms of rape, defined herein as sexual contact with another individual who has not provided consent for such contact, a crime in all member nations.
CLARIFIES that contracts or agreements, such as marriage or equivalents, shall not be construed as automatically granting an individuals consent to sexual contact.
STIPULATES, further, that all individuals are permitted to revoke their consent to sexual contact at any time before or during the act itself.
REQUIRES that anyone found guilty of rape must be sentenced to the fullest extent of the law of the member nation for a felony conviction.
PROVIDES the International Criminal Court as an appeals court in the case that a member state may not provide an adequate punishment for the rape, to revise a punishment as appropriate to be stringent enough for such a heinous act.
Again, rough, but that might rectify some of the concerns with your quick rewrite. I could see my delegation supporting something along these lines.
