I say "forgive" with heavy on quotation marks because we really shouldn't be complacent with seeing noncon in our stories. But I am also saying don't go attack the author just yet. Let her cook with the narrative so far.
I just hope that Richard gets REAL consequences to his actions. No not sexy fun time consequences. Courtney you better stand your ground!!!
Yea
You do have Point
I had to come find your comment after your reply to me & I didn’t even realize mine was right after yours because if I would have saw it I wouldn’t have had to write mine, lol.
I would have just put AGREED & kept it pushing. But I do want to say if your on the fence about than you should definitely go off the next chapter after this one. & I say that to everyone! How he responds to this is going to be the most important part & will determine whether the author truly meant for this to be a rape scene or not. Like I said it would be very on brand for the prince to be apologetic & if he’s not or they just gloss over it then I’ll even consider dropping this manga myself! I saw someone say she going to beat his ass for this— & though it would be really funny to see that I kind of hope they don’t & will make this a boundary lesson or something like that!
frfr.
we need more context and see where this goes.
and dont worry! its nice to see open discussion about something so sensitive. Its ok to like something and still be critical but respectful at the same time. I normally just turn off my brain when i read erotica. but it was just sad to see a lot of name calling in some of the comments from both sides of the coin and couldnt help but yap. hahah
I also dont want to come off as preachy. I'm sorry if i did.
AGREED, lol. But, no your comment wasn’t preachy at all! Very open minded in my opinion! & I absolutely agree with the turned off brain when it comes to reading erotica (≧∀≦) I also was surprised at how the comments were going & felt like I need to say something so I super get it! ╮(￣▽￣)╭
The thing with consent, it can be taken back at anytime. So even if they agreed beforehand but if someone says no in the middle, you listen and full stop. Richard DID grape her.
Now, it's up to reader discretion if they want to "forgive" Richard or not. Or be disgusted and drop the manhwa.
I personally am on the fence, mostly because this is such a morally grey area??? Like I understand that he is a virgin and is very enthusiastic about finally finding (manipulate) someone who matches his freak,,, but he's the more informed out of the 2 of them. He's read the BDSM books (he even recommended them to her), he knows about consent, he knows about safe words, He knew his dick was too big he should have stopped her from shoving it in the moment he thought it was dangerous. But we all knew he has only been after his selfish desires and satisfaction. He rarely ever considers Courtney's feelings and pace.
But I kind of see that he got lost in the sauce. there is such a thing as Dom/Sub space that people can accidentally fall into when they are so into the bdsm play. But again Richard and Courtney are both virgins and you can still argue that no matter how much information they read about it, they're still both so ill equipped.
While I am very disappointed and up that there's grape in my femdom, but I think the author knows what they're doing So I'm still gonna give her the benefit of doubt. Plus I walked in here expecting such (although we really don't deserve/shouldn't
get used to it in our media) and this is free so,,
So please be kind and respectful to each other in the topics section.
