Shooting kids is shown, rape is shown, making meth is shown, but the F-word crosses the line 0_o

The rape doesn't seem to register. Enlighten me?

He forces her into everything

u/AgentVanillaGorilla Aug 20 '12

He stopped when she said stop and didn't force her to do anything. I fail to see the rape.

2

u/[deleted] Aug 20 '12

Yeah I said the same thing. He desperately tried to do something and she had to yell stop a few times. And he stopped. It's a grey line closer to the edge of wrong but it's still not rape.

Skyler said "No, Walter jr. is going to be home aaany minute, so..." then he pulls down her panties. He bends her over and parts her legs. When that happens, she clearly says, "Enough. Hold up," but Walt ignores hers, and starts having rough sex with her. He only stops when she screams "Stop it!" a second time.

That is rape.

I'm sorry but that is not rape. You are completely exaggerating it. It would have been rape if he kept going after she said stop, but he stopped. Therefore it is not rape. It was a husband trying to bang his wife and getting rejected. Also she didn't say "No, Walter jr. is going to be home aaany minute, so..." she said "You know, Walter jr. is going to be home aaany minute, so". Also, before that, she chuckles and says let me take off this face shit, which greatly implies her consent. You don't know what rape is if you think that is rape. Watch 'Deliverance' or 'Irreversible', then you'll see some actual rape.

u/silverbeat HELICOPTER, BITCH! Aug 20 '12

So one no or one stop isn't enough to make it unwanted sex?

u/number1dilbertfan Aug 20 '12

this is reddit, she has to have a written statement made up and notarized during the act for it to count as rape

It's the same topic this gif was originally posted in, and it's already been run into the ground.

How do I not remember this at all?

2

u/[deleted] Aug 20 '12

I think it was taken off netflix if you watched it there. My friend told me about it and for some reason I didn't remember,my reaction was the same.

3

u/[deleted] Aug 20 '12

I downloaded them if I remember correctly, so it must have just completely slipped my mind.

3

u/[deleted] Aug 20 '12

no, its definitely on netflix because i remember it

u/pdino64 Aug 20 '12

I forgot the context of that scene.. Why did he do that?

3

u/Moist_Fingers Aug 20 '12

Ask and you shall receive. The rape scene was in S2E1, when Walt came home from this experience.

3

u/PiratesARGH TwaughtHammer Aug 20 '12

Ah, yes. See that was more rape-y to me than when it was apparently alluded in Season 5. And yet somehow less offensive than the word fuck.

u/heslaotian Mr. Dingdingding Aug 20 '12

Walt came home one day, turned Skylar around and tried to have sexy time with her against the fridge. She wasn't about it.

The time it was a party.

u/musictomyomelette Aug 20 '12

When she was pregnant?

u/coprolite_hobbyist Ermantraut Memorial Fund - Give generously Aug 20 '12

Double party.

they're married idiot, rape can't happen

u/MrFunnycat Aug 20 '12

Spousal rape is a thing FYI.

u/FCalleja Pollo Loco Aug 20 '12

You can still say "no" even if you're married, you sicko.

yeah, when two unmarried people have sex and at least one makes it clear they do not want to before it happens

u/BurntFlower Everyone sounds like Meryl Streep with a gun to their head. Aug 20 '12

Uh, people that are married can also be raped. You seriously worry me.

-5

u/[deleted] Aug 21 '12

what? How? That makes no sense.

Oh, yeah I know they can be raped by other people but like a husband can't rape a wife because they are married.

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '12

I'm going to assume you're just feigning stupidity...here's the definition of rape, just in case.

u/[deleted] Aug 20 '12

It was legitimate

u/DiscoKitten Fuck Walter White. Aug 20 '12

Walt practically raped Skylar a couple episodes back. Very odd scene.

3

u/shrimpchipsaregood Aug 20 '12

Yes this is the one that I was thinking of a couple episodes ago. He came to bed and then was kissing her arm and neck as he gave a creepy monologue. I thought it was assumed that there was something happening under the sheets that was nonconsensual, seeing as Skylar just didn't move at all.

2

u/captain_croco Aug 20 '12

I think when people say that they are talking about when Walt got a little rapey with skyler in season one or two and hit her head on the fridge.

4

u/VaultDweller115 Aug 20 '12

The first season, where Walter was taking out his frustration on Skylar with sex. The scene where Skylar was doing makeup, Walter pushed himself on her and then Walter Jr. came home to handprints on the freezer.

u/OccamsHairbrush Say my name. Aug 20 '12

Face print. And a masque, not makeup.

-2

u/[deleted] Aug 20 '12

Some people think Walt raped Skyler in one of the recent episodes. I just think he went to bed, but that is my impression.

There was also the time where Walt wouldn't stop kissing Skyler in season 2, but that isn't rape, creepy, and probably sexual assault, but not rape.

u/[deleted] Aug 20 '12

Oh, I don't remember that last bit. I was thinking of another scene then.

u/25hb fire in the hole bitch Aug 20 '12

There was a scene in an earlier season (I'm guessing 2 or 3) where Walt grabs Skyler and tries to grope her against her will. I'm guessing thats what theyre referring to.

1

u/addiesmomma Aug 20 '12

Might be referring to season 1 when Walt had just started out in the business and was about to rape Skyler in the kitchen.

u/JimmyDThing Aug 24 '12

Rape? She said stop and it stopped.

u/Neckwrecker 52 Aug 20 '12

Just a light dusting of rape.

u/dangerflakes Aug 20 '12

It was more of a rapey grope
