It's really not, definitely worth a read

I think there were some situations that could have ended like that (reverse harem?), had he not been so well protected. Also I like that the women just largely adapted, because they had to.

His only use was protecting their future, not their present

Yeah, it could definitely have gone a different way and there were certainly actors pushing for that with various motives.

That it didn't end up that way but still touched on the topic in general made it a much better read IMO.

Ive heard good things about that comic, less so about the TV series.

A dark comedy take is Creamerie. Definitely recommend.

I vaguely recall the TV show (and that it wasn't great).

Also, if any of you are old enough to remember the TV show "sliders" there was an episode that dealt with this same general scenario.
