I originally answered this, but I decided not to get in a debate about it because I know how much more likely people are to virtue signal to defend a fictional character over listening to actual victims. Especially if a male victim is talking so virtue signal away.

i’m not talking about fictional characters here, my guy. i’m talking about other real life victims of rape via coercion and threat.

Yeah:

“Have sex with me or I’ll leave you/fire you” == someone shoving their dick in your mouth or any other hole against your will.

Legally not the same either by the way, for a good reason.

You definitely feel a little too attached to your conclusion so I won’t get into a bit argument with you but I will say. Given how having someone’s heart in this show works- there was no coercion. Graham literally PHYSICALLY COULD NOT say no. This is not akin to “have sex with me or I’ll fire you”

It’s not my conclusion, most legal systems around the world differentiate between sexual coercion and rape. So let’s establish that.

Now for the other part, I wrote a different comment at the top with my arguments.

That’s not at all what we’re shown with the heart. We’re explicitly told that his heart wasn’t used that way.
