double standards

I saw a thread on an ASOIAF forum that was like “Is it possible that Jenye W was raped [by Robb]?” And while I would say that the weight of the evidence falls on the side of “no” (at least not in a violent or easily recognizable even in that cultural setting as rape sense), I do find it telling in a sad sort of why that the fandom came soooo eagerly and decisively to Robb’s defense in this thread (the outrage! that someone would even suggest! *snort*) but then there are all these theories festering around about how Jeyne slipped him love potions/plotted with her mother/took advantage of him (somehow?) when there is just as little evidence to suggest this.
