  1. The portrayal of the females when they interact with the male protagonists (the gender thing) and the "funny" rape of Mat.

     

    First off! Heja Sverige. Ett steg närmare världsdominans! =P

     

    Second: I dk if that was Jordan´s intention but maybe he portrayed the women as interacting with the men as he did, to make a statement how the men in our world act with women. Subversive writing... although if some of the men irl were as pigheaded as some of the women in WoT I would smack them.

    And rape of women is still considered as something... like meh. Mean crime, rape is bad, but hey girl? What were you wearing and maybe you liked it rough? And nobody cares.

     

    But my biggest one is! Nobody communicates! And I hate the fact that there is a man vs woman war going on. I really hope that will be reconciled at the end of the series.

     

    Sorry, I have to take you up on this. It simply isn't true. If a man is so much as accused of rape, the whole force of the legal system is thrown at him. Even if (as in far too many case) the accusations turn out to be completely false & the accuser retracts her accusation, the man still has to go through the whole legal procedure to get cleared. Men falsely accused of rape often have to complete a prison sentence even though the original accusation has been withdrawn. Sorry, you are either very young or simply ignorant of the facts. Look this stuff up, it's appalling.
