En samtyckeslagstiftning är på tapeten i Frankrike, och såväl fransk media som jurister har sökt Roks för att få organisationens bild av hur samtyckeslagen fungerar i Sverige. Roks vice ordförande Adine Samadi skriver i rapporten att samtyckeslagen missar målet:
"The consent-based sexual offences law in Sweden has primarily been used when the perpetrator was relatively unknown. It has failed to cover the violence that occurs daily, which constitutes the majority of rapes. Roks women’s shelters and girls’ shelters in Sweden meet women and girls every day who, according to the law, have consented to the rape but did not want to."
Hon skriver också om införandet av oaktsam våldtäkt i lagstiftningen:
"Sweden has also introduced a law on negligent rape, which Roks takes very seriously. This law means that a man who commits rape may receive a lesser sentence if he should have known that there was no consent. Through this legislation, men are given a justification for raping somebody rather than protecting women and girls."
