Well, he’s already committed the act of rape. So there’s one big mortal sin right there.

I’d say his want to “spill his seed” out of the victim wouldn’t be out of compassion but more likely from fear of his semen being used as forensic evidence to convict him. Either way spilling is seed is also a mortal sin.

So that’s two.

Not to mention, he can actually get the lady pregnant as pre-ejeculate fluids contain sperm, also, he spills his seed near the woman or her clothing or on her leg - she can still get pregnant, Those little guys are keen little swimmers.

The woman is sinless in this.

The rapist has two mortal sins just off the bat. There’s probably a few more in there as well.
 
The Summa Theologica (see here) says that the sin is compounded. The completed rape is disordered as an act of violence, but is properly ordered as regards sexuality, as the semen ends up in the right place. The interrupted rape is disordered as to its sexual nature, which was worse in the eyes of the medieval Church.
And yet St Thomas made his chief argument against fornication the fact that it was bad for the offspring that was born out of wedlock and a normal family.

At any rate, I believe that if that rapist thinks about himself, he compounds the sin, but if he really thinks about the woman, then he avoids a different compound, i.e. the one connected with burdening the woman with a child begotten of rape. But the question is sick. Rape is not an academic matter. One in a couple of women in the US has been raped. I’ve seen claims up to 1 in 5. Some read this thread.
