(Anonymous) 2012-09-15 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)Well, like you said, vampires have different rules. None of the vampires on the show treated it like it was abuse or that their will was taken away. I've never seen it used in relation to sex (yet) except the fucked up thing between Tara and Franklin and that was protrayed as the abuse it was.
And as Bill/Lorena proves, that can become incredibly abusive and fucked up.
I agree. That was the most fucked up vampire ship on the show. But their abuse was based on Bill's hatred was of being made a vampire against his will by Lorena, not because of his vampirism. And it was in no way portrayed as sexy or desirable. Bill was toxic in his abuse and Lorena was adequately shown to be pathetic in her continued love for Bill despite the fact that he fucking twisted her head all the way around during sex. Eww. Still the most WTF moment in TRUE BLOOD for me, tbh.
This doesn't mean the maker/progeny relationship HAS to be abusive but the huge power imbalance definitely makes those relationships a bit...odd if sex is brought into the mix.
By our standards, yes. Very much. But not by the show's standards. Like I said in my original comment, Eric and Pam have a very loving relationship, regardless of whether sex is involved or not. Eric protects and cherishes Pam while allowing her to be who she is, and we know he and his sister have a very sibling type relationship, despite the occasional bumping nasties, down to affectionately arguing about who daddy loved more. Bill and Jessica (my favorite Maker/Progeny relationship) is probably the healthiest relationship either of them have ever had.
Anyway, I'll stop now.
