Not really, Actus Reus is a central concept in western law. It's a bit like applying common sense in law, you'd like it. Actus Reus and Mens Rae are both required for a criminal offence, otherwise there is no offence. Surely you mean 'mens rea', or are you just making it up. But back to the point, calling someone the 'n word' while shagging them is racist.
We have now sunk to a depth at which the restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men. [Orwell] |

Ops, yes, Mens Rae, actus reus would refer to the action, not the mind of the defendant. From Reds under the Bed, to reds in the bed. You do have a curious fixation. Yes, it could be racist, or it could be a fetish. I went out with a feminist who liked to be treated rough, and play out rape fantasy. Doesn't mean I'm a rapist. But I'd say, if someone says something potentially racist in private, and no one is offended, then no crime has been committed. Plenty of people like being insulted or degraded, or the use of offensive language during sex. Private lives are different to our public lives.

It's against the law to refer to someone as "scum"? Really? Not really, unless your trying to provoke them into committing a criminal act. Technically, insulting someone can be construed as verbal assault or disturbing the peace etc.

It wouldn't come under 'Hate Crime'. Your's wouldn't either I'd imagine. But used within the context of a proper hate speech then it would. You are talking crap. Calling someone "scum" is not against the law! Who said anything about "hate speech"? Talk about moving the goalposts to fit your argument.
