But I have no doubt that this would be what I would have written if I hadn't read spoilers for Heroes and known to just give it the fuck up. I've never seen what happened, and it still has made me sick to think about. And I know that wasn't even a rape scene - but the combination of violence, sex, and diminishing a woman to nothing but a degraded object with the writers' brazen "lol she's a slut" attitude about it? It was enough.
I'm so tired of these storylines. I'm so tired of seeing female characters attacked and victimized and killed purely to get a reaction out of male characters. FUCKING. WORD.
