I think the term feminists use that you are looking for is "enthusiastic consent"; for the reasons you describe, "no means no" may be too limited of a standard at times for ensuring ethical sex.
You are right. It's strange to see "begs the question" used properly for a change, I couldn't puzzle it out when I read it before.
