Rescue Me’s Disturbing Sex Scene

Share

Posted by Auburn Scallon Categories: Drama, Cable, Editorial, Gossip

Rescue MeOkay, so I’ve previously accepted that has succumbed to soap opera antics in order to maintain ratings this season. They’re no longer a gritty real-life fire fighter drama. They took things a step too far this week, and I’m not referring to the homosexual blow jobs (I actually applaud them for taking on that story line). Tommy Gavin, after a ridiculous amount of emotional trauma in his life, goes to discuss his divorce settlement with his ex-wife, and in the heat of the moment, throws her down on the couch to prove his manhood. She struggles, fights back, and after accepting that she is currently being raped, sits back, enjoys it and orgasms? What kind of message is this sending?! It’s one thing to portray sex with an ex, but this was a huge step backward in our attitudes about domestic violence. Did this bother anyone else? Let me know your thoughts…

I’m really of two minds about the whole thing.  On the one hand, it’s reprehensible to portray a woman as enjoying a rape in this day and age, but, on the other hand, Janet’s enjoyment is sort of consistent with how poorly drawn her character has been all along.  It’s going to be very hard to have sympathy with Tommy’s character after this—as if it weren’t already.

It’s become quite clear as of late that she clearly enjoys having sex with him.  Their relationship isn’t great, but she has always like him for being forceful.  She also enjoys him in the sack.  They were married before- it’s not like he’s a stranger, and there’s clearly still some feelings between them.  Was it right of him to do? No. But it’s not uncommon for people to have great sex but not like each other personally.

The sex scenes in Rescue Me last like 10 seconds.

They don’t even change positions before he nuts.
