i would say that it’s more dubious than rape, even if dohu bled and all that. i dont really remember anymore what had happened, but that sex was damn aggressive and unnecessary
Dohu made *himself* bleed. Juheon tried to stop him when he saw Dohu was bleeding, but Dohu basically said it was proof of his sincerity and Juheon's concern was proof that he didn't want Dohu to be in pain. I would not call that dubious at all. It was intentional and consensual.
(copying my reply) i agree it's dubious consent at best, and i think it's valid that people are categorizing it as rape. dohu wanted to stop and vocalized that, and juheon gave him an ultimatum to continue or walk away/deal's off. since there was a threat/pressure involved, this would be dubious consent at best. can argue juheon wasn't in his right mind bc of the pain, which they seem to try to establish retroactively in the following chapter, but i personally don't think that's a strong enough justification, since he was fully lucid and eloquent during the threat.
Wait wait wait. Who are people suggesting raped who? Cause I'm not seeing it. Dohu wanted it. Juheon wanted it. Either of these guys could have stopped it if they wanted to -- saying that was rape is totally mocking their agency.
