This is exactly what I'm trying to get across.

The character is an abusive, charming, manipulative rapist. He has superpowers that aid him in doing that, but at base, there's nothing outside the realm of reality in the character himself. You could take away the powers, and he could be a completely plausible, completely awful real person. And I just feel like... I mean, if you are attracted to abusive, charming, manipulative rapists, I don't think that's something you ought to lean into.

Being attracted to a fictional "abusive, charming, manipulative rapist" does not mean at all that you are attracted to them in real life, though. As someone said above, it is a kink. I get that he's very realistic for that type of man. I agree with that. And I personally find him too slimy to be attracted to. But I'm not going to judge someone else's kink. He's still fictional.

Yeah, this. I have fictional characters I adore (heck, I have created fictional characters I adore)--but if they were real people I would run the fuck away. They're not even necessarily bad people, just... terribly, terribly damaged.

Re: spoilers

[philstar22]

Yup. Most of my current fictional crushes are all either really horrible people or are damaged and have such horrible lives that I'd stay far away in real life.

Fiction is fiction, no matter how realistic it is.

I'm not even sure I'd call him charming, tbh. (Sure he does dress well, but...that's about it? He isn't friendly, he isn't polite, he just bluntly tells you to do whatever the hell he wants. He doesn't like pleasantries or pretend to be anything other than a prick.)

But that's what I mean, yea. Take away the superpowers and his particular brand of awfulness is pretty... well, normal.

And I just feel like... I mean, if you are attracted to abusive, charming, manipulative rapists, I don't think that's something you ought to lean into.

Haha, well I don't think anyone sets out to be attracted to monstrous characters, but the fact that they aren't real plays into that; I think almost everyone you see attracted to villains wouldn't feel the same way in real life. Just knowing that character isn't real distances it a bit, even if at their core they are a very believable (and terrible) person.

I might not be attracted to Kilgrave, but I have been attracted to certain villains.
