[quote=Anonymous]I think the 'rape' scene is interesting. I think it was a violation by like, modern day standards. But it is wrong to attribute modern day standards to the world that the show inhabits.

Daphne didn't know what sex was like a month before the incident. To act like she can fully understand the ramifications of something she literally wasn't even entirely sure was the correct process is ludicrous.

I think his not explaining the whole thing to her was really bad. He knows she doesn't understand about sex, and believes he can mislead her about what she's engaging in. I don't think the can't/won't thing is that big of a deal, but the pulling out, having her wonder about it and not explaining it is really bad. Neither gave the other full autonomy,.

That said, she was going to marry him no matter what, so the 'marry under false pretenses' thing is also kind of BS.

IMO both were dishonest lovers. And their relationship almost ended over the fallout of their discovering their respective dishonesty and I think that is 'somewhat' realistic.

They got past it when both understood the other's perspective. Personally I feel like she should have had more contrition in show for what she did, but honestly neither really apologized, they just agreed to move past it. [/quote]
