Certainly I have never had sex with a woman unconscious. Having sex with a woman who is under a sleeping pills or another kind of drugs, and can not express her consent is rape. And It is not just a moral issue the law condemned this kind of behavior included within the limits of the marriage.
That's not quite what I asked. But if the question is too crass, consider it dropped.
I always thought Freud's Oedipus complex—part of his theory of infantile sexuality—was flaky, not least because in the Greek myth he referenced, Oedipus had absolutely no idea that Laius was his father when he killed him, nor that Laius's widow, Jocasta—whom he subsequently married and fathered children with—was his mother: the very opposite of the relationships in modern nuclear families. In the myth, as I'm sure you already know, when the truth eventually came out, Jocasta hanged herself in shame for what she had done, and her son Oedipus, overwhelmed by guilt and revulsion, blinded himself with her brooches and went into exile.
(While I wouldn't mind seeing Oedipus' fate visited on Daniel I would prefer a much better one for Lana than Jocasta.)
And as I'm sure you know, the name of the complex wasn't named because the behavior exhibited was to a tee a mirror image of Oedipus. You're only arguing nomenclature, now.
The truth is much simpler: Daniel is a sex-obsessed teenager who wants to have as much sex as possible with the sexiest and most gorgeous women he has seen, or almost certainly will ever see, who happens to be his mother.
Then he is not "sex-obsessed."
He's obsessed with physical contact from his mother, and his mother only. That's a notable difference. Every female in the comic, with the exception of Rosa, seems to be attracted to Daniel. But Daniel has only ever expressed interest in Lana even in charged moments with other women, namely Sofia and Martha. Even when Kiara, Sharon's friend, expresses interest in him, he doesn't appear to give it much, if any, attention.
He is a completely unprincipled young man bereft of a single scrap of honesty, honour, higher nature or shame who is prepared to do anything, literally anything,
Yes, he's been willing to do anything to carry out his interests, but he's been forthcoming about those interests with Lana. So his lacking a "scrap of honesty" isn't based on anything.
to get his way including getting his mother drunk,
Daniel never got Lana drunk. Lana got drunk on her own at the end of Chapter 9 because she was frustrated with Alex passing out.
manipulating her while she is vulnerable,
Yes, he has done this.
assaulting repeatedly without her consent,
He hasn't assaulted her.
and even drugging his own father to maintain access to her.
Yes, he has done this, and I admit that's pretty messed up.
I can't remember seeing Daniel do a single selfless thing for Lana,
Why do you guys keep compelling me to recall this moment? What about the end of Chapter Eight when that stranger tried to "recruit" Lana, subsequently groping her, and Daniel rescued her, shoving that stranger without thinking twice? Seeing as the man was much larger in physique than Daniel was, would his putting himself in harms way be considered "selfless"?
person he has put in jeopardy multiple times because if the incestuous relationship he has with her were made public,
Yes, that's the theme with which Daval proceeded following Chapter 4. I think he believes (I'm only guessing) that their willingness to do anytime or any place is a measure of how intense their love and lust is. The consequences of exposure is intended to provide stakes, and a fallback on which Lana can return when she's not fully invested. The culmination of everything that has gone on is intended to eventually have Lana fully commit.
and they ended up prosecuted, in many countries around the world Lana would be sentenced to a long custodial prison sentence and the pair forbidden from seeing each other: Daniel of course, being a young adult, would be treated more leniently and probably escape jail.
The consequences are ultimately controlled by Daval. And given his V.I.P. comics, Lana and Daniel's public shenanigans are rather tame. If his V.I.P. characters haven't ended up in jail, I doubt Lana or Daniel will.
The Daniel character isn’t doing what he does because he has to, or because he’s driven to it, helpless in the grip of some psychological imperative—he’s doing it because he wants to fuck his sweet, loving, and beautiful mother for the pleasure that fucking her gives him.
The two aren't mutually exclusive. And given this recent update, not to mention, the previous others, I would heavily disagree with Daniel's not feeling a compulsion to have sex with Lana.
The little creep revels in the power he has over Lana, dominating and bending her to his will,
Exactly. Because as I have stated before, it's not just the Oedipus complex Daval has broached with Daniel, it's also the male power fantasy. It isn't breaking news that Daniel is trying to dominate and bend Lana to his will. And Lana in her thought bubbles has expressed an attraction to this aspect of Daniel. If Daniel wasn't aggressive and assertive, Lana would probably have done less than 5% of what she has done. Daniel's character traits are necessary to push Lana out of her comfort zone and indulge her
IMMORAL DESIRES. Otherwise, she'd have absolutely no incentive to cheat on Alex. (In all honesty, her reasons for cheating on Alex are silly.)
That's ID in a nutshell and, my friend, is a pity because it could have been so much more.
No offense, but I don't think you've assimilated the events of the previous 11 chapters to recount this entire story "in a nutshell." I think you're more focus on shitting on Daniel, for reasons known only to you. There are just a few people in whom I'm confident actually knows the nuances of Immoral Desires' plot. Nevertheless, I'm not here to change your mind, only rebuff the errors in descriptions that are far from accurate.
