Generally, the "reverse" (or "gyaku"/逆, if we're going to resort to Japanese) prefix is generally understood in Japanese pop culture to refer to the roles being reversed from the typical expectation-- but it's effectively a designation of "female-on-male". 逆レイプ would refer to female-on-male rape, 逆NTR/逆寝取られ would refer to a man being stolen by a woman, et cetera.

This doesn't even look like netorare, though-- more like netorase, and I am almost sure that I'm not going for it if this manga's really going to commit to this for a premise.
My point is that the notation "reverse" is overused and unnecessary. If a woman rapes a man/boy she isn't charged with with "Reverse Rape" or "Reverse Statutory Rape".

In some jurisdictions, what she'll be charged with isn't "rape", to begin with. Though, that's neither here nor there.

In the sense of reality, your point is salient. That said, we're talking about tropes in manga, and manga exists in a pop culture where it's become normative to use the modifier "reverse" as shorthand for "female-on-male" in regards to certain tropes perceived as normally being a male-on-female phenomenon-- such as "NTR" (which isn't a crime at any rate).
