Generally enough in any given person’s social context that they should have a decent but not infallible sense of what’s acceptable. Obviously there’s a great degree of cultural variation.
What about for a culture that permitted non-consensual sex?
If there are people who are genuinely not make uncomfortable by suddenly having sex with them, and you know this, then sure. (That such people could exist on a culture-wide level I find tremendously implausible, but LCPW and all that.) Of course what we usually mean when we talk about “cultures that permit non-consensual sex” is ones where a husband can rape his wife all he likes, or just rape culture more generally, which is obviously a different axis of variation than how much personal space people tend to have.
The OP was about people from two different social contexts (atheists vs Christians), so that doesn’t help that much. (And if you think that religion doesn’t count as a social context, there have been places where people from different religious backgrounds have even had different native languages.)

Would you consider that an acceptable justification for the treatment of Dalits? What about for a culture that permitted non-consensual sex?
See Yvain’s parable of the salmon and Vladimir’s reply.
