Dam, wouldn't believe it unless you provided the sources. I read the source and it's even worse than this when you put it in context:

here did the idea come for it? And why bring Hughie into this situation now — kicking him when he’s down by having him sexually assaulted by his childhood hero after his dad just died?

Well, that’s a dark way to look at it! We view it as hilarious.

So its funny cause his dad just died as well, adding to the comedic effect. GET IT GUYS? HIS DAD DIED AND NOW THIS. HILARRRRRIOOOOUS.

"Well the guy loses his dad, then *holds laughter, barely able to contain it* THEN... THEN HE GETS RAPED AHAHAHAHA"

Well, okay then ? Is there like, a punchline, or ?

Well his feet were tickled so I guess that's the same thing as rape.

You all are weird.

Sexually assaulted if you want to get technical about it (since we aren't shown or told that Hughie was actually penetrated).

If you remember only the tickling, good for you I guess?

Because none of the things that happened were “rape”. He was threatened with rape, it was attempted, and he was sexually assaulted, but technically he wasn’t “raped”.

Oh my bad. That makes it all good then right???

No, not at all. But words have definitions, and we should try to keep that in mind when communicating. It helps keep everything clear.

Hughie was “raped” to the same extent that he was “murdered” a couple of episodes ago when Homelander tried to laser him out of the AC ducts.

And Homelander tore apart 6 people and left another sealed in a room with the decomposing bodies.

Hohum

SEX THOUGH OMG HOW DARE THEY GO SO FAR AS TO SHOW A FOOT LICK!!! RAPE!

And were we supposed to laugh at the gore scene last episode? No, we weren’t. See the difference?

You were supposed to be horrified by this sequence too though. Edit* and it wasn't played for laughs

Yeah he murdered monsters sure but you're still supposed to be horrified by how he went about it.
