Yep - and that's the problem. Insecure "nice guy" doesn't try to place himself in any other perspective but his own. If he isn't educated on this then he has no chance to understand, so sabotabby at least gave him an opportunity to hear it at least once in his life.

I doubt anything will happen, but the fact sabotabby did speak up is a good thing in the end, as terrifying and awful as it was for her.
