You can be mad a goblin slayer all you want but it’s a trope that goes further back than goblin slayer. The goblins are also somewhat designed after real life pirates and pillagers who do the exact same thing. And in no way am I saying that it’s good or acceptable I’m just trying to explain it
The most logical thing I can think of as a reason for goblins to be like this is to leave no room in your mind to like the goblins. Making you view them as scum to then let them be killed by the mc making you like the mc more for bringing justice to the goblins
it still doesn’t explain the blatant need for sexual assault lol. It may be based on “historically accurate” tales of pirates and plunder but violence and brutality don’t have to have sexual implications. just murder, and pillage. burn the houses, slaughter the people, kill the livestock, steal their valuables. all of those things make them bad, I’d root for an MC to kill goblins who pillage and murder.. but to assault for no real reason aside from “for shits n giggles” just seems really gross. sexual assault and r*pe are traumatic things, incredibly so and making it a “plot device” is stupid.
BTW I’m not calling ur statements stupid, I do understand the historical impact of pirates n such, and the terrors they caused. I just think authors using it to say “look how bad these things are” is dumb when there are PLENTY of other things (carnage/brutality/arson/etc) that can qualify something to be “bad” and worthy of subjugation. ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Basically, if female monsters don't naturally exist or are rare, the next best thing is a compatible substitute. They're used for reproductive purposes and it's not exclusive to goblins.
An example are succubi. They are female list demons who rely on r*ping men and collecting their semen to reproduce.
Even in LOTR, it is suggested that the Urukhai commit this heinous act. For the purpose of reproductoon.
But also, remember that males in general tend to assert their dominance on another being using their p*nis.
This is evident in prison, for example, and can occur with same sex oppressors.
You’re probably the most respectable and understanding person I’ve come across on this site
You know i really didn’t expect to have to “debate” wether or not r*pe and sexual assault were bad? like people are defending it? defending the premise of “well i mean it’s just something that happens in war/history so it’s fine to include it” babe it’s 2023? people *should* have rights lmao?
LOTR doesn’t get a pass? there isn’t an “excuse” for heinous actions. i enjoy LOTR- i enjoy that series. but just because it’s old and classic doesn’t mean i can’t criticize it. including implied sexual assault is shitty behavior. plain and simple.
Succubi/Incubi don’t get a pass either? just because they are “hot demons” doesn’t mean that the assaults they do are forgiven? they are demons, they are bad, obviously in p*rn and romance they are portrayed otherwise but consent fucking matters?
BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY…
How the *fuck* are you implying that because animals do it in nature- it’s fine for people to r*pe others? do you hear yourself? establishing dominance between animals and forcing yourself upon another human are completely different. fantasy orcs/goblins/urukai/etc are made the FUCK up! they are the result of authors, of storytelling, and it is the fault of them that this behavior has become normalized. change the narrative.
AND ALSO- BEFORE I END THIS WHOLE BLOCK OF TEXT- why in the *fuck* cant there be female goblins? cross species animals usually are fucked in some way. look at a mule, a liger, a tigon. those animals cannot reproduce through normal means. usually they cannot reproduce at all- and the chances of them existing in general are slim. because cross species animals aren’t really *supposed* to happen. goblins r*ping female women would produce nothing, our genes are different, our bodies are different. the chance of a goblin being born between the union are slim to none. a deformed fucking miscarriage would be the only thing produced, if anything at all.
thank you for your time, and jesus christ go touch some grass lolヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
Wow. You are incredibly ignorant and naive. I won't even bother pointing out the fallacies in your "logic" because your head is clearly in the clouds.
Rational thought doesn't seem to be your strong suit. Enjoy those rose colored glasses of yours, dear.
lmao imagine not having evidence to support a claim and instead of owning up to it, you claim that “proving you wrong” isn’t worth your time. ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
Why do the monsters always have to r*pe the female adventurers? why?? like just tear them to pieces and eat them, don’t leave them with irreversible trauma. r*pe isn’t fanservice. it’s a literal crime.
“only the female adventurers get r*ped,” do authors think men don’t get assaulted? pushing the narrative of “men strong, women weak” is so last century come the fuck on. (╬￣皿￣)凸
