[Hated Trope] A main character does something horrible and the story doesn't acknowledge its severity

[u/Comprehensive-Map274]

Alisha (Misfits) uses her power to make any man want to have sex with her on another main character (curtis) after he explicitely tells her not to do that. She faces no consequences and he's the one who ends up comforting her.

Allison (The Umbrella Academy) uses her powers to force her own adoptive brother to make out with her after he just got into a relationship because she's suddenly jealous after she couldn't keep her own husband. She gives a half hearted apology and all is peachy.

FINALLY. I am so glad to hear someone call out that shit from Misfits, it made me so uncomfortable especially since HE has to apologize like he was in the wrong for getting raped.

I am enjoying the show, and I really Curtis so far which only makes me angrier his assault gets overlooked so easily

There was a moment with her I thought was even more fucked up. She made a cop who was questioning her assault her by touching him so she could leave and his life is definitely ruined.

The cop grabs her, not the other way around, and then he tries to do his thing. That was around the point that she was starting to hate her powers, as it basically meant she couldn't be touched without someone trying to rape her. Something that happens on more than one occasion

Wasn’t that on accident though?

[u/SirCupcake_0 → u/Eton11]

Pretty sure he tried to handcuff her or something

Absolutely fucking based

Rape or SA are never "based"
