Imagine the nerve of someone "moaning" about rape culture. Gosh.

Also most people seem pissed because it's a big deviation from book!Jamie. At least, that's what I figured from people in the fandom. He was on a moral upswing since S3, but it's hard to ever forgive a rapist. Book!Jamie is much preferable.
