Whether it gets awkward and painful or if it goes perfectly smooth, generally speaking the basic fundamentals of sex are the same: there are two (or more) attracted parties who both decide to act on that attraction. If there's not attraction involved, there's still a mutual consent involved. If it's not mutual, there's a problem in the line somewhere...but what about when there's strong grounds for that mutual consent to be disputed on one or both sides?
Sometimes, things get a little bit (or quite a lot) dubious.
Step One: Post your character with Name/fandom/preferences, and be sure to consider just how closely to what side of dubious consent you're willing to walk (slightly dubious, or very obviously invalid)
Step Two: Others respond, rolling up or choosing a scenario.
Step Three: One or both parties get consent all muddled up.
Step Four: Deal with the fall out afterward, if you choose.
1-4 are more mutual dubious consent, and easier to walk the line of consent. 5-9 are more one sided and walk the line of non-consent.
1. Outside coercion - On display, or some perverted laws, or maybe there's a breeding facility of some sort.
2. Aphrodisiacs - Accidental or on purpose, one or both have been doused heavily in some sort of irresistible aphrodisiacs.
3. Biological imperative - Baby-making (or many attempts) must happen NOW. For the sake of children, or just to survive something.
4. Intoxication - Beer goggles and impaired judgement.
5. Illicit substances - Lack of any judgment whatsoever, nor probable recollection.
6. Sleeping - Sleeping may not be 'yes' but it's also not 'no'.
7. Control - Through actual control or some sort of blackmail, the 'yes' probably isn't sincere.
8. Trickery - Deceit and misrepresentation of one party to convince the other.
9. Manipulation - Bedazzle and confuse them somehow into saying yes when they normally wouldn't.
10. Wildcard - Some form of dubious consent circumstances not listed.
