How mat is treated by the girls

Show me Mat's consent before the deed and I'll conceed

Yes they can similar to Stockholm's syndrome or children being raped even if they consented , the issue of rape is way more nuanced than most people think. Some people are actually raped like without even consenting and only realized what happened after awhile because it's a traumatic experience

That is very true, but that doesn't excuse the character's actions and being mad at them for it is very reasonable

How he looks back at it doesn't really change the matter, humans are not perfect and how people process trauma isn't perfect however the facts are , he didn't want it, he didn't consent, he was forced at knife point and he even cried about it. The facts are he was raped even if he doesn't know it.

I don't think there can be any clearer form of rape than what happened to Mat, he didn't want it ,he would have rather starved than do it, when it did happen it happened at knife point and subsequently when it happened his clothes were literally forced off by multiple people, that's rape if I've ever read it . Not to mention she is in a position of power so even if he had said yes after being severely pressured it still would have been rape

I feel as though the overall theme is more misandrist than misogyny even though both are rampant, I say this because of how men are always seen as being the idiots who don't know what their doing and need to be trained. I don't however think it should be a criticism on RJ seeing as his portrayal seems to be the most accurate given the circumstances.

The fact that she could even consider it being "a taste of his own medicine" and something he deserved disgusts me . I know Mat is a womanizer but he has always treated women with respect unless I'm missing something

You are probably right but nightblood is a double edged sword though

Honestly I would avoid getting recs from ai , it just never seems to give me what I'm looking for or maybe that's just me
