Then again your probably a person would advise a woman to get raped as opposed to fighting back, because hey you could get hurt more. What if the woman being raped picked up a knife after the rapist was done and killed him. Would you charge her for murder and possession of a weapon?

Yeah, thats voluntary manslaughter if the women kills the dude AFTERWARDS.

"Voluntary manslaughter is commonly defined as an intentional killing in which the offender had no prior intent to kill, such as a killing that occurs in the "heat of passion." The circumstances leading to the killing must be the kind that would cause a reasonable person to become emotionally or mentally disturbed; otherwise, the killing may be charged as a first-degree or second-degree murder. - See more at: http://criminal.findlaw.com/criminal-charges/voluntary-manslaughter-overview.html#sthash.42ZjdBGr.dpuf "

Yes, but they still intend to charge him of murder, not manslaughter.
