Original Note:
The sex act performed by the victim is not rape under English law as there was no penetration of the ‘complainant’. There is no case law indicating that a trans person not saying they are trans is considered ‘deception’ for the purposes of Sexual Offences Act 2003. https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2003/42/notes/contents
