Is it okay to kill a person if he or sometimes she is about to rape you and if it is the only way to stop them?

Yes. Though the idea that using deadly force self-defense when you're being raped or assaulted is probable or even possible is extremely dumb and harmful. It's just another thing that amounts to "the victim allowed this to happen, they're at fault." The "tips" about avoiding, resisting and escaping rape are often based on bad or no data and place all the responsibility on the victim.

I think your instinct would do the job if you have enough power to stop the raper.

Killing someone is never ok imo, but you never know what you'd do in those situations til you go thru then. For me, killing someone isn't that easy. Anyways I hope not to experience that situation to figure out how I'd act

If I have the chance to kill em, then I certainly have the chance to disable them, it happened before but it was a thief( twice my size), you can't imagine the feeling afterwards, the glory, the honour, the ecstasy ..... sparta.

There is a criminal system for these things... I'm not planning on killing anyone.
