This plays into rape culture, into rape-is-funny, and into threatening-rape-is-a-fine-way-to-keep-women-in-line.
I'm not saying that you're wrong for your read; I'm just saying that I didn't read it that way. I honestly didn't see it as threatening rape, or saying that rape is funny.
I am thinking about the Doylesian consequences and the writer's meeting.
I guess that's part of why I'm not seeing it, because I'd be very surprised if Amy Berg thought that it would be funny to have Nate and Sophie threaten a woman with rape.
