Had the question been "Should rape be made legal?", then I don't think anyone here would've answered "yes". And in fact, I haven't seen one post here trying to justify rape. What I was saying is that whatever criteria you put to determine whether something is morally right or wrong, the rapist is still going to disagree. It does not mean I think he is justified in that. I still, for all practical purposes, see rape as always wrong (like I said in my first response).
The question posed in the OP was a philosophical question. So I answered in that sort of framework.
Anyhow, I apologize for harming all members who got triggered by my posts. I want to make it very clear that was not my intention and that I was just trying to answer it from a purely logical perspective (in my view at least). With my answers, I failed to empathize with those who been through bad experiences in life related to this matter, and I apologize as well to Rebecca for the misattribution regarding lack of objectivity.
