Description
It is mentioned that women are not safe around a particular male character.
The protagonist demands that his friend give him a kiss in front of a large group of people. This makes her and most of the other people in the room extremely uncomfortable. Only one person is happy with the situation, the most powerful person present. This powerful person encourages the protagonist to treat women and girls this way.
