What,really? wrote: CooldueAl:"Your trying to put real world legality on fictional characters in a fantasy show. It's just not going to work." I am trying to put real-world morality onto those characters. This is pretty common--when was the last time you looked at Joffrey Baratheon and said, "Oh, well he's fictional, so he is not really a bad guy."

As for successful marital rape prosecutions? I can't be sure of the real rate, but in the span of a few years, over a hundred were successfully prosecuted. There may be many more successful prosecutions now.

Rest assured that my default assumption was always that you were against marital rape, unless you explicitly said otherwise. Well, their morality isn't any worse than a lot of real people. XD And, of course, in the show, they are bad or evil or whatever, but at the end of the day, I'm not losing sleep over the people Voldemort killed to make his horcruxes, or the hundreds of peasants Regina killed, because it's what the plot required, and I want an interesting story. And nothing is more boring than "10 super morally perfect people walk into a room, and have polite conversation."
