The bill sounds pretty bad. But to be fair, the clause defining "intercourse" does say "the insertion without privilege" etc.
I am not fully up on legal terminology, but does "privilege" refer to permission to do so? In other words, when I insert a tampon in my vagina myself, I am not doing anything sexual. But if a random pervert were to forcible insert a tampon in my vagina, that would be a form of rape with an object and therefore "intercourse" for legal purposes.
