it's hard to think of any sentence you could include it in that's not offensive on some level.
the phrase "you can't rape the willing" sounds like someone's lame excuse for raping someone, so it has an odious feel. (images of frat boy lawyers...)
someone who actually wanted to state this "fact" without being defensive wouldn't phrase it this way. they would say something like "rape is the absence of consent by any party involved in a sexual activity. "
