I'm trying VERY hard to give it the benefits of the doubt b/c French Fantasy, so yay! But I cannot deny how PISSED I am about the characterization : Ophélie doesn't want to "make a scene" (hello, rape culture!), all powerful women are crazy bitches, the men are either rude and dismissive assholes OR crack rapist jokes (REALLY??) and I kinda want to burn them all at this point. Oh also, double standards.

"De Thorn elle s'était attendue à tout. Brutalité. Mépris. Indifférence. Il n'avait pas le droit de tomber amoureux d'elle."
WTF. Okay so : Contempt? CHECK. Indifference? CHECK. Brutality? If in words, then CHECK. IN LOVE??? NOPE. NOPE. NOPE. This is such BULLSHIT, I can't even.

So, basically, you have a matriarchal society intensely MISOGYNISTIC. Because of course. THAT makes sense.
