Carcel spent 9 months out of the year in Calztela where he lived a celibate life. It’s only when he visited Mendoza, women pursued him and he slept with some. He didn’t sleep around indiscriminately. He only slept with widows and divorced women. He never slept with commoners, single women and virgins. He never slept with anyone twice. Author said that over 7 years, he probably slept with 10 - 15 women. They were all women he knew about in terms of family and history. He never slept with strangers. He never touched a woman who pursued him without their explicit consent unlike two other characters in this story.
They cannot be "baseless" when he literally admitted to do them. It's not as sinple as "he didn't deny" them, he confirmed that he did them... Having a job or spending much of his time doing other things did not stop him from fucking everyone that jumped him. He was not a sex addict, he just slept around indiscriminately. That behaviour is literally whoring around. If what you have a problem is the wording then that's a whole different issue.
Maybe if you use "5lut", "Promiscuous" or "libertine", they'll find peace in their heart.
It is true that his reputation is vastly exaggerated. Even Ines comes to admit that the rumors from her life as a crown princess were probably exaggerated. Here is the novel excerpt. This actually takes place in the chapter after he walked out the room during the crazy lady arc. Manhwa deliberately chose to exclude her thoughts on this because they don’t want to ever show Ines admitted she was wrong. However, in the novel, Ines admits that Carcel is the kind of person who, people constantly made up stories about. Even the women use him name as a conquest:
Of course, if she thought about it a little more, she didn't even know that 'original' Cárcel Escalante very well. A playboy with many followers. A man who avoided duty and marriage. Words that could've been used to devalue him were not as varied then and now. Everyone only sees the loudest aspect of others.
Not getting married was considered a major flaw, regardless of gender, and he, who was considered to be the most handsome man in the world beyond borders, was too conspicuous wherever he was. When Cárcel did one thing, ten stories were created the next day.
People come on we are in 2024 why are we still slutshaming....?? Calling a woman a wh. Ore its not cool
