s*x btwn two women now can't termed as unnatural offences under sec 377 if it is done wth the consent of both..delhi high court 2009 ruling has terminated earlier part.

Devesh A. Bhatia (Advocate)     28 May 2012

As per IPC 375 rape can be committed by a man on a woman. Penetration means physical penitration and it is tested by seminal fluids in evidentiary stages. Upon strict interpretation ( which is a case in all criminal statutes) a woman can not commit rape according to indian laws. 

Although a women can be held in abetting rape and criminal conspiracy to commit rape.
