Honestly that might not occur to him. He doesn’t think that because those laws most likely don’t apply in their time. And on top of that, he likely thinks that because he double checked with her and she initiated it, he isn’t at fault for anything.
That’s also true considering people’s perspectives at the time :)
Ty!!
Just because there are no laws about it in their country in the webtoon，doesn't cancel the rape.
Imagine you were so fucking intoxicated and then a SOBER guy takes advantage of you. Instead of contacting authorities, your relatives etc and bringing you home, he brings you to his place then has sex with you, but you couldn't consciously consent because you were drunk then suddenly forces you to get married by putting the blame on you but you couldn't even remember what happened because you were that drunk, how would you feel? Not only that, makes threats to taking your life?
Imagine if the guy was ugly, because I somehow feel like you would still try to make an excuse that it wasn't rape if the guy was handsome like what you're doing right now with Ripley's situation.
I never said it was okay. I said that’s why it wouldn’t occur to him. And why it isn’t on his conscience.
You know it isn't okay, but you were saying earlier that he isn't at fault.
I didn’t say he wasn’t at fault I said he THINKS he’s not at fault for anything because he double checked and it wasn’t something that would occur to him due to their time and laws
I see. I apologize for being hotblooded with all these idiots blaming her.
No it’s okay. I understand why you would be mad. That’s why I’m not mad. It’s disgusting to see people justify rape.
Yes, that fact is sad. Again, I truly apologize for lashing out.
Ok can ppl spoil me(don’t read the replies if there is one if u don’t want spoilers) honestly to everyone hating on the fl, just think what if the duke wasn’t so handsome and perfect looking, like he took advantage of her while she as drunk then proceeded to tell her it was her fault then that she had to take responsibility for her “actions” that weren’t even hers and she tried everything to get out of it, I mean if he still didn’t get the memo and still held on to her shouldn’t he be at fault ?
