Also re: the "he was a pirate and pirates raped people" logic, I have just found out that rape was actually forbidden by pirates! The pirate code, under Captain John Phillips' articles, states that "IX. If at any time you meet with a prudent Woman, that Man that offers to meddle with her, without her Consent, shall suffer present Death."

Basically, pirates who raped women were killed.

So there went that point, I guess.
