... but nothing within her argument presents us with the requisite information to prove that actual rape culture does not exist.

At the least we can demonstrate that her version of rape culture does not exist (in the West, anyhow), which is the point as we're dealing with her arguments and not the topic more generally.

Further on, feminists frequently do not use your definition, and consider virtually all sexual relations involving men and women to implicitly be rape because they believe women can't genuinely give consent for the reason this person outlines.

The author's definition of rape culture here is wrong.

That feels a bit like a no-true Scotsman argument because feminists number as the most significant individuals to argue for rape culture at all. And this (or something very similar) is the definition they tend to utilize. Surely many of them would find your definition to be "wrong" instead.
