A lawyer pointed out to me that in Singapore, you don't need to have intent to commit rape. The specific clause is: "Any man who penetrates the vagina of a woman with his penis without her consent... shall be guilty of an offence". Actually in general the crimes involving sexual activity (excluding outrage of modesty) don't specify intention, which is interesting. Perhaps this all ties in to Victorian ideas about presumed consent which are no longer extant. I haven't yet heard of cases where the nebulous and contested concept of consent has given someone legal problems here, though.
