    TNG 4x15 is also the one where riker gets raped and then gets beaten into life threatening conditions after failing to escape

      I believe he consented, although it was for the sake of a chance to escape. But also, it’s Riker.

        He clearly was not consenting, what the actual fuck

        It’s clear in his body language and the way he was speaking that he didn’t consent

        He was coerced into doing it so the perpetrator would let him escape

        Also just because riker frequently gets with women in the show doesn’t mean it’s okay for him to get raped, all the relationships he has had with women have been with consent on both sides

        Why the actual fuck would you say that

        It’s like saying it’s okay for a woman to be raped because she’s had many relationships with men

        Really didn’t think I’d come across a user like you on lemmy

        Rape is rape no matter the gender

          Just making an offhand “Riker is a horndog” joke. I apologize as it was in bad taste and without consideration.
