this is giving curly far too much credit and is a very naive read on a phenomenon that occurs irl where men take the side of their rapist friends bc of their friends, as well meaning as they can be. curly's sin is that he was jim's friend before he was a captain to anya
ofc men get saed if that what's youre implying but the game is a commentary of the patriarchy and how it creates an environment that allows men to exploit women. genderbending simply erases that commentary
