I thought this was a concept that was widely understood. Not here, apparently. Maybe some of you want to look it up.
A few people here have mentioned that they got over their own trauma by having sex, so I am going to give this a little more benefit of the doubt than I otherwise would. I hope for their sake, though, that it was just sex, and not being raped a second time, just less brutally, like the uke was.
But at no point in this entire story was consent freely given. Every instance was consent under duress, which even legally, is considered to not be consent at all. In the US, at least, if you laid this entire story out in front of a judge, the seme would be headed to jail for rape and extortion.
And don't get me wrong, I am enjoying this story immensely, it's the first one I click when it comes up in my notifications. But that's because I know it's fiction, and the things being done to the uke aren't real. Not because I think it's reasonable to do those things.
Then I come to the comment section and it's full of people who think it IS reasonable to do those things, people who comment, "wEll hE aGrEeD tO IT" as justification. Who apparently have no understanding of the concept of consent under duress. I keep hoping they are just trolling, but if not, are they out there in the world doing things like this? Smugly telling themselves that they've done nothing wrong?
I like this story, and I like coming to the comment section to see what other people think about each update, but good god this comment section more than any other comment section is full of people that make me wonder what the hell is wrong with them.
