And hungry, I imagine.

Many people think certain things aren't options, until you make it one!
Does being able to walk through walls count as a superpower?

Now that's just sexist

You don't understand how much that hurts, and you're asking about a dilemma that is BASED on this premise? >__<

I marry the girl!
Inspiring. I'd perform the ceremony myself.

A potential being... we're talking about very real and demonstrable suffering. Some children are born slaves, tools, and toys, and you CANNOT stop this (save by killing the girl).
If you cannot rape her, and impregnate her: kill her. You have been given full capability to do such.
Kindest option yet: stop her suffering.
Quote:As this was posed as a moral dilemma, I answered in terms of what would be the most moral choice. Under my personal moral code, causing harm to children is one of the worst possible things one can do.
I can certainly understand your position... but there are many levels on which my differing values show.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
