If a guy tries to rape a girl, the girl can shoot them in self defense. They are not limited to, “smiling uncomfortably.” Not sure where you got that from
If you’re defending yourself from lethal force, such as being held down with threat of death, you can respond with lethal force. Basic self defense. Maybe you’re from an odd country or something, idk.
Are you referring to like if they raped you and then like a day later- with no threat- you went and killed them? Cause, yeah, once the threat is over you aren’t allowed to (but you can call 911 and get them arrested.) But, if you are saying that a women who is being raped and is being threatened with death simply had a gun and shot them (while the person is threatening to kill them), you are just making stuff up. That is not true. You are allowed to defend yourself if there is threat of death or serious bodily injury- regardless of gender.
This has uhhhh..... nothing to do with our conversation? Plus, ALL of these are from New York, and it's getting close to a DECADE ago that they changed their laws to give much more ability for self-defense in domestic violence cases. You're about seven years late, lil bro. We were discussing rape, not physical assault- those are different. Tanisha Davis was undeniably an unfair case. Not sure, maybe you haven't even looked into these cases, but that was a case where she was sentenced primarily due to racism, not sexism. The prosecutor called her a, "Hood Diva," and said it is, "their culture." Literally disgusting, but a case like these can't happen anymore, due to them changing their law. Maybe we should be asking why New York has such restrictive use of lethal force in self defense?
News flash, the law as written matters a lot less than the law as executed. You might live in a world where women will face no scrutiny for shooting attempted rapists, but that world is not reality, and never has been.

So human women are the only ones that don‘t have anything as defense except for smiling uncomfortably
