if this series resonates with you because you where any of the multitudes of trauma levied on the MC, good for you, don’t let this review take away from that.

Now as a survivor myself of not the most ideal home situation and sexual assault i can say the only thing this series gave in terms of value is not making all the rapists random strangers. it’s his ex, his stepdad, and his boss, all of which happen very often in reality and it’s great that people can be more wary of who and what to look for.. BUT everything else about the way he navigates trauma? very… sanitized… very “movie trope-y” if you get what i mean. everyone reacts to trauma different, but his reactions don’t even make sense for whatever had just happened to him not even a scene before we see his reactions. oh, i got assaulted in a parking lot after work? let me walk at night all alone by myself after work… not even the next day

anyone who rates this torture porn that’s held together by terrible character writing and plot higher than a 3 star should go to hell… i came for steamy scenes, got through 7 or so episodes of ooorly written trauma, and left because it all should’ve been over when the third rapey villain was defeated
