You are not correct/ It is not a girl or a boy. It is both girl and boy. If both decide to have sex then there is no law arises or complaint framed of rape. Becuase both are doing with consent. Even if girl want sex the boy can refuse it. No one can force him . Rape comes only when one part agrees and the other party refuses and if forced is use then it naturally comes rape.

Your conception about rape is not clear. If a girlfriend, or a woman do try to have sex forcibly then also it is treated as rape. Yes. It is possible for a girl or a woman to rape a man. Before knowing how it is possible, let us look at what the word ‘rape’ means.
Etymologically rape means
1. “The act of forced penetration of any bodily orifice (vaginally, anally, or orally) or forced cunillingous, involving violation of the survivor's body and psychological person. The assault is accomplished by the use of force, the threat of force, or without force when the survivor is unable to physically or mentally give her consent. It is the destruction of a feeling of control over one's body, life, and the course of events. Rape is an experience of violation, degradation, and humiliation. It often infuses the survivors with the shock of their own vulnerability,
2. The unlawful compelling of a woman through physical force or duress to have sexual intercourse.
3. Any act of sexual intercourse that is forced upon a person.
4. The crime of forcing another person to submit to sex acts, especially sexual intercourse.
5. Legal interpretation: A criminal offense defined in most states as forcible sexual relations with a person against that person's will. Rape is the commission of unlawful sexual intercourse or unlawful sexual intrusion.

Now, from above interpretation it is obvious that in rape, a woman may also be accused. That means a woman can also rape a man.

So far resistance by the man is concerned, it can be said that unless there is a resistance by the sufferer, the action would not be presumed as rape. If there is no report of physical or psychological resistance from the sufferer’s side, the act would be granted as a consented one; not a rape.

I don't get your question properly. If it is a forceful one, no matter whether it is a girl or a boy, a rape will always be considered a rape case. For the boys, one have to come out with the voice that he has been raped by his girl friend or someone else. But it is very rare as boys don't come out either because of prestige issue or because they like to compromise with the other party. I am talking about the Indian Scenario. Whenever the sexual intercourse is forceful, it would be termed a rape case and if any of the party complains, the other will be convicted of the crime.

It is not like that. Both cases comes under Rape section.Rape can be by both,a male can rape a female and the famale can rape a male too and both are considered as offence under our Law.One is called " Stree Peeddan " and other comes under "Purusha Peeddan ".There are many cases / incidence where a boy has been "Raped " by few college girls.But these types of " Rapes " are reported comparatively very few as "he", the man later on co-operate with the girl who rapes him. Where as, the other case gets more public attention and widely reported as an offence against the woman.So,as soon as we hear the word "Rape ",we think in general terms as you said.

The word RAPE is manhandled nowadays. With Human Rights and the Women's Lib, it is a provoxateur to a law suit. Many an employers are being harassed in the name of sexual harassment. Even teachers of schools and colleges are threatened with dire consequecnces . It has become a lethal instrument in the hands of unwitty people.
Voices are being heard on the issue. Soon some relief will be given in this regard.

All depends upon the consent to do Sex. When Girl offer, in most of case, boys affirms but in most of case, when boy offers, in most of case, Girl refuses at first time. This is not consent which amounts to crime
