Let me be clear at the start: If Peter Nygard actually "raped" even one woman, meaning taking her and penetrating her by FORCE, I would gladly cut his pecker off and feed it to Canadian wolves, then burn what's left of him at the stake using a Manitoba Native American totem pole! It appears he actually did rape at least one woman he met getting into an airport taxi, so that's what he deserves.
THAT SAID, MOST of his debauchery was no different than that of Hugh Hefner, Bob Guccione, Jeffrey Epstein, Harvey Weinstein or 95% of all fashion and performing arts moguls who have been exploiting young beautiful women for sexual favors since the beginning of time! And if you don't think "respectable" fashion VIPs like Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren and Georgio Armani never did things like this, you are VERY naive! The women who play their game and choose to roll the dice know exactly what they're getting into, never say "No" and I don't feel sorry for them. In fact one of the so-called "victims" in this documentary was honest enough to say that she did it because she was a single mother and needed a lot of financial support, which she gratefully received. At least she was honest about it.
There's no question that Peter Nygard was an evil scumbag who deserves whatever he gets. But if 95% of a documentary like this is essentially redefining rape as any sex a woman later regrets having, I have to call B. S.! This infantilizes women in a Victorian way and belittles the real victims who screamed NO and still endured the horrifying violent crime of forcible rape.
