He's saying he's not misogynist but his penchant for writing rrape scenes is problematic. I'm trying to think if anyone was ***** in V For Vendetta, other than the attempted rrape of Evey, and its kinda vague about whether Barbara Gordon was ***** by the Joker, but what he did to her is one of the first examples I can think of when I think of the "women in refrigerators" tropes.
And I was definitely uncomfortable with the invisible man in League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen, I don't recall that his spree as a serial rapist was treated as something horrific and fucked up. Was more disturbing to see him grope Mina in the movie though and its just like "Oh, you scamp!"
