Do we need to talk about it when it's everywhere? (Does that make sense? lol) Part of what upsets people about this storyline, imo, is that male victims are so underreported. There's a huuuuuuge stigma there. As I and others have pointed out, it's a joke in our society. That's what upsets me about it. If a person rapes or assaults someone else, they should be punished. If a character rapes or assaults another, they should be punished. This show has a record of non-forcible rape going unpunished. And the fact that the victims are male highlights a less thought of problem in our society. Some of what you've said, CDA, seems to feed into that idea. It's all the same issue. and the show is playing into it.
