firstly, as emphasized by others the fucker's the KING. especially in their times, a king is a goddamn king.
lastly, I reckon you're unfamilliar with Asians' heavy HEAVY (to a point of toxicity/seeming stupidity) "respects" for close-tied friends, wherein a friend guest should accept the over-the-top efforts of the host and have a gratitude (aside from the fact that he is a soft hearted, people-oriented doctor). which was on the aspect where he couldn't go, because king guilttripped him into saying that they haven't seen each other in so long, hence he didn't want him to only stay for a night [prior him staying for the whole "rainy" season (that didn't come)] which he had no choice but to agree on and so it amplified him, to rather do what was 'logical' in his situation.
so far, my man's not shown any stupidity, what are you on about? t.t
yeah thats still victim blaming. men like the one in the story would NEVER expect a scenario like being assaulted so when it happens their mind blanks out, get confused, and don’t know what to do. these type of reactions are normal bec no one expects to be assaulted not unless you already experienced it. statistically speaking, rape victims are mostly men in prison. anyway, get educated in this topic.
your first thought should never, oh but he looks strong why didn’t he fight back, oh she looks at me flirtatiously so that must be consent. ALL BLAME IS ON THE RAPIST.
isn't this really stupid? a man that size and he what? he's weak like this? i hate when they make things so unrealistic to the point of being dumb.
