Here is a categorization of many of the "rape" prosecution issues that defy law, protocol and rules of evidence - by Naomi Wolf. She is a noted feminist:
Specifically, there are eight ways in which this transcript is unusual:
1) Police never pursue complaints in which there is no indication of lack of consent.
Ask Sweden to produce ANY other police report in which any action was taken in a situation in which there is no stated lack of consent or threat of force. Police simply won't act on a complaint if there is no indication of a lack of consent, or of consent in the face of violence. The Assange transcripts, in contrast to any typical sex crime report, are a set of transcripts in which neither of the women has indicated a lack of consent. (There is one point at which Miss W asserts she was asleep - in which case it would indeed have been illegal to have sex with her - but her deleted tweets show that she was not asleep, and subsequent discussion indicates consent.) The Assange transcript is therefore anomalous, as it does not suggest in any way that either woman was unconsenting, or felt threatened. On this basis alone, therefore, the Assange transcript is completely aberrant.
2) Police do not let two women report an accusation about one man together.
The transcripts seem to indicate that the police processed the two accusers' complaints together. This is completely unheard-of in sex crime procedures; and the burden should be on Clare Montgomery, QC, or Marianne Ny, to produce a single other example of this being permitted. Never will two victims be allowed by police to come in and tell their stories together - even, or especially, if the stories are about one man. Indeed, this is a great frustration to those who advocate for rape victims. You can have seven alleged victims all accusing the same guy â" and none will be permitted to tell their stories together. It doesn't matter if they coordinated in advance as the Assange accusers did, or if they are close friends and came in together: the police simply will not take their complaints together or even in the same room. No matter how much they may wish to file a report together, their wishes won't matter: the women will be separated, given separate interview times and even locations, and their cases will be processed completely separately. The prosecutor, rather than being able to draw on both women's testimony, will actually have to struggle to get the judge to allow a second or additional accusation or evidence from another case. Usually other such evidence will NOT be allowed. Miss A would have her case processed and then Miss W â" with absolutely no ability for the prosecutor to draw form one set of testimony to the next. The reason for this is sound: it is to keep testimony from contaminating separate trials - a source of great frustration to prosecutors and rape victim advocates. Thus the dual testimonies taken in this case are utterly atypical and against all Western and especially Swedish rape law practice and policy.
3) Police never take testimony from former boyfriends.
There's another remarkable aberration in this transcript: the report of a former boyfriend of "Miss A," testifying that she'd always used a condom in their relationship. Now, as one who has supported many rape victims through the reporting process, I have to say that the inclusion of this utterly atypical - and, in fact, illegal - note will make anyone who has counseled rape victims through the legal process' feel as though her head might explode. There's a rape shield law in Sweden (as there is throughout Europe) that prevents anyone not involved in the case to

Now, they have their Obama. Peculiar phantoms without personal history or achievement that explain the sudden catapult to the forefront. And after them... An unrecognizable transformation of the country and people.
It's possible to be raped by someone you previously had consensual sex with.
Yes. It's quite a bit harder to make such a distinction when the alleged occurrence happens the same night, without having even left the bed yet from the former undisputed consensual liaison. I believe that comes close to the colloquial trope "lovemaking session".
Oh, and she continued to engage with Julian on subsequent occasions. She was certainly not in a position of personal, economic or social dependance on Assange. Actually, quite the reverse.

To reiterate, Julian Assange does not have any outstanding criminal charges against him in Sweden; he is wanted for questioning over allegations of sexual assault that surfaced after WikiLeaks made international headlines for exposing possible war crimes and gross illegality by governments. Were Assange unwilling to face the charges against him, it could be seen as a tacit admission of guilt. But, as both Assange and the government of Ecuador have made clear, he is willing to return to Sweden to confront the allegations against him as long as Sweden guarantees that he will not be extradited to the United States to face other, far more grave charges stemming from WikiLeaks.
The "rape" allegations were cleverly manipulated and brought to public attention in an attempt to do several things. - Prey upon Assange's personality and identify his persona as a synonym for Wikileaks. - Move the core issues exposed by Wikileaks to the periphery of any examination. - Assault the liberal/humanitarian orientation of any naturally inclined to support Wikileaks and Assange, creating dissension and re-aligning former supporters.

Succinct, uncouth and completely correct.
Assange faces no charges in Sweden.
There is not even an indictment.
One of the women has retracted her allegations.
To reiterate, Julian Assange does not have any outstanding criminal charges against him in Sweden; he is wanted for questioning over allegations of sexual assault that surfaced after WikiLeaks made international headlines for exposing possible war crimes and gross illegality by governments.
