This series contains sexual violence, which is an addition from the book it is adapted from. S1E1: an attempted rape scene on-screen is followed by a heavily implied off-screen rape (15:30-17:00). The victim is shown being dragged off-screen by her hair while screaming. The aftermath of the rape is also shown (35:30-38:00 + 46:00-48:00): the victim tells the rapist's mother what happened. The mother downplays it and asks the woman not to report her son, and then murders the victim by electrocution in order to silence her. The mother is later murdered in punishment for this event, but there is no indication or sign that the actual rapist ever faces any consequences. A man unsuccessfully hitting on a woman sarcastically says: "I'm not going to rape you, jeez." S1E2: an ex-policewoman has flashbacks to a rape case in which the rapist was described as a “lovely young man” and the victim as “an unstable junkie.” The victim is shown on-screen accusing him and trying to hit him. The policewoman threw the case out of court: the rapist later attacked another woman, and this time, murdered her. In a flashback, a young boy's trousers are pulled off him by bullies, to humiliate him in front of his crush. S1E3: a woman deep in panic and extremely upset grabs and starts kissing a man; they have sex, which is not shown on-screen at the time. However, a short clip shown later in the series makes it clear that the sex was filmed without their knowledge or consent. S1E4: a woman taunting another woman says “what’s up with you, were you raped as a kid or something, was it your daddy?” S1E5: an ageing male celebrity cheats on his wife with young fangirls. No sex scenes are shown onscreen, but a scene where he is blackmailed over the phone reveals that two of the girls were underage teenagers.
