--- Quote from: BenRG on 04 May 2018, 02:35 ---Okay, Chris? Let's set aside all of the strawmen here and get down to cases:
1) This is about Marten, not me, not you and not anyone else;
2) Marten clearly didn't feel abused because, even if he wouldn't have responded, his various girlfriends certainly would have - Definitely Dora;
3) The fact that nothing ever came of it indicates that Faye's behaviour was never as threatening or as abusive as you perceive it to be.
End of story.

Thats the damn problem, she is abusive, physically abusive and no one calls her out on it, ever and shes never had to face up to the repercussions of her violence
Maybe if there was a storyline where she addresses her violence and understands what that violence does to others I might start to think of her differently but at the moment she lives a life where she can punch anyone she likes, threaten anyone she likes and generally be intimidating to whoever she likes and everything's hunky dory

Agreed, but the advantage of possibly being in a relationship with Bubbles is she’s probably the only person she can’t intimidate with violence and even she admits as much.

But the intent is still there and on occasion shes certainly intimidated Claire so just because she can't hurt Bubbles doesn't make it a good thing because her first reaction, without thinking, is to threaten and bully.
BenRG:
You know, I think that some of you must be reading a different strip to me. She didn't 'bully' or 'intimidate' Claire. She made it abundantly clear that she expected Claire to be more considerate of her room-mates in future. Mostly because seeing a 'red tarantula' in the bath scared her out of her wits.
Is it cold in here?:
Anyone have the strip reference? I seem to remember Claire being afraid. Even more vaguely I think I remember something from early on where she tried to establish dominance.
awgiedawgie:
It was 2930, and Marten did object to it.
