NYCMonster1984 100 Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Something I wasn't very aware of until last night was that victims of s-xual abuse and rape are often triggered by rape scenes on TV and in film. It's to bad that Ryan Murphy uses it so freely in his shows as entertainment. Last night a few of my friends had to turn off the show and were really upset from it. They didn't put a little warning, but if any of you are triggered by this please be aware to skip from 18 to about 22 minutes of the show! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warholian 6,880 Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Anybody can be triggered by anything in television. Suicide, bulimia, blood, violence, kidnap, house break-in. They can't be cautious when making a show centred around ideas of horror, and I'm personally happy they're willing to take risks. Kevin Parker, Mac Demarco, Mark Ronson, and a stoned Lady Gaga.

Fiona Apple 13,006 Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 This is AHSÂ Â It always has rape,disgusting scenes etc. If a person can't handle those things,he shouldn't watch even 10 seconds Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FATCAT 55,843 Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 It's a shame because she just released TIHTY... Gave me a good chuckle Though, this is a very s-xual and violent show, so I don't think anyone should be super surprised that they've combined the two.. Thanks for letting others know, though! Purr more, hiss less. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morphine Prince 96,187 Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 American HORROR Story. Rape is a horrific thing. You do the math...There has been a rape in every season. People who are triggered by these things should not be watching this show. The ratings before say "MA, for mature" - Sexual, Violent, Language. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankenztein 1,150 Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 There actually is a warning for disturbing content before the show starts, so if someone can't handle it they should listen to that warning and not watch in the first place. AHS has also been known for having rape scenes in the past. If they are sensitive to such things they should be responsible for themselves and research a potentially horrific show before they watch it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Ricky 8,730 Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 It's not like, seeing kids get murdered in the series would make anything better to horrify/disturb someone. It's all about the genre, the rape scene gave us the effect already. As you see everyone is disturbed and horrified by seeing it. So it worked. Crossfit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benji 20,113 Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 I sympathize so much with victims but it deserves and needs a place in our media. It's something we need to see, it's powerful and reminds us that rape is still very much a real thing and hopefully it'll stir people's feelings who have never been a victim or know of one.It was a tad OTT on AHS I think... I don't think it would have been AS BAD if it was carried out by another human, but I think the scene is really meant to represent fear and hell on earth so it is understandable.Also, I know America doesn't really have one on the same level as a lot of countries, but it was shown post-watershed.

Tove Lo 2,481 Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 But wasn't there a meaning behind it? Of course it can still be triggering but I think there was a meaning behind it. Someone talked about it in the live thread. hop on that **** like a maniac Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
