Why So Much Rape in Stormblood

[ThunderGodThor]

But sadly because it's seen so little, that sort of thing would actually be groundbreaking if they went there and applied it to a man, admitting that men can be victims of such abuse as well.

I have to agree with you. We often see the disastrous affects that rape has on female victims in the media, but not so with men. FFXIV could really make an impact if it went ahead with portraying such a story with a male victim. Raubahn may make sense for this- he's a traditional masculine male, and male victims often feel very emasculated when they go through that sort of trauma. I don't know, I just think it may help people see and understand what some men have been through, and do go through, rather than just being an edgy prison joke.
