That I do not agree with at all. The condom is never morally acceptable. If the case was as you say she should get out of that situation. Forced sex is rape.

Dear johnb2004,
"If the case was as you say she should get out of that situation. Forced sex is rape."
It's only within the past few decades that the case of a husband forcing himself on his wife has been recognized as rape in this country. There are parts of the world where a woman is unable to successfully make that claim against her husband. Furthermore, in these places, many women will find themselves unable to readily escape their circumstances.
So let's get blunt. If a woman is about to be forcibly raped by a complete stranger, does she sin if the rapist offers to use a condom and she agrees?
I don't believe that one can say that the condom is violating the nature of the "marital act", as there is no marriage to give the act context.
