Line 86:
*** Fitz himself meets with a great deal of disapproval for his dalliance, but the consequences for him would never be as severe. Sure, he got killed a few times, but never for sex.
*** Conversely, his relationship with Starling never met with the same disapproval, because she's a minstrel, and [[My Girl Is a Slut|the rules are different for minstrels.]]
*** Althea in the second series, in a more conservative climate, is routinely shamed for her activities, which include pursuing a man's career (sailing) and a man's sexual appetites (having any). Her niece, Malta, is [[Show, Don't Tell|portrayed]] as a man-eater in bud, but YMMV as to whether that's budding sexuality in a young woman or simple starvation for mental stimulation.
*** In the third trilogy, Fitz shames Starling a bit when, on learning of her marriage, turns her out of his bed. He then shames his son for taking up with a young woman when he didn't have the ability to make an honest woman out of her, and gets in a fight with the girl's father over the same. Fitz receives some shame himself when the world at large believes he's gaying it up with his foreign-born employer. The Fool himself also seems to disapprove of Fitz sleeping around with women he doesn't love, but not on moral grounds; his reasons are more complex and more specific to their relationship.
** ''[[The Soldier Son]]'': The eponymous son becomes, thanks to a disease, grotesquely obese, which warrants disgust from everyone he meets, and colors their opinion of any desire he might express. His father's disgust is deepened when he believes the boy caught the disease from a prostitute (false), and he flees town ahead of a mob for supposed necrophilia (also false).
Line 146:
== [[Web Comics]] ==
* Inverted in ''[[Questionable Content]]'', after Faye sleeps with {{spoiler|her boss's brother, Sven}}. She immediately begins to freak out, but is reassured by her therapist that she's not a slut, and that a casual sexual relationship can be healthy, and is perhaps exactly what she needs at that point.
* [[Magick Chicks]]: Invoked by name when [[Alpha Bitch|Faith]], [http://www.magickchicks.com/strips-mc/enjoying_the_perks calls Tiffany out on it.] Also counts as a mild [[What the Hell, Hero?]] moment, since Tiffany is the school's resident superhero.
