That's what I meant when I said the whole scene would need to be rewritten to fix it, because there's so much wrong with it.
However, I don't think LKH intended it to be rape. I think she was playing up Anita being a "good girl", because good girls don't ever want to have sex. Which is why Anita never has sex of her own volition - if she did, she wouldn't be a "good girl" any more.
For all her claims to the contrary, LKH is still very much a prude in that regard.
