> Would a woman who lied about having been on birth control reasonably be said to have raped a male partner?

No. But birth control isn't the only aspect to the issue. As you stated, sexually transmitted diseases are an issue. More of an issue arguably.

Also, two women have reported the same behaviour (to my knowledge). Although not enough to be considered a pattern, it's disconcerting.

Yes, it is my understanding that at least one of the women and the new prosecutor involved have expressed that the case should be dismissed.
