Charlotte Newell KC, defending, said the conversation “obviously related to sexual practices, that was made quite clear”, later adding that it was about the person “pretending to be asleep” rather than actually being asleep.
The complainant told the court that Davidson had never asked her to engage in those activities.
The pair met on a dating app and then in person twice, years apart, and had consensual sex on both occasions before the alleged rape, including several times in the days beforehand, the court heard.
Davidson is also on trial accused of attempted rape and sexual assault against another woman, after he allegedly filmed himself groping her in Thailand in 2019. He also denies those charges.
The jury has been told that Davidson pleaded guilty to a charge of voyeurism in December 2019 against the woman in Thailand.
The trial continues.
