Damh sees people ignoring the pleasure, inhibiting themselves, because of the dictates of an unkind and unfair Law. What higher good can there be but the pursuit of happiness, for all, regardless of what the Law would say?It's only harassment if the women are denying themselves pleasure and happiness for social restraints...it's only harassment if they are living in sin, effectively. If they embrace good (or if Damhites can show them the way toward Good), they wouldn't deny themselves pleasures and favors. They'd be happy to give in to the Dahmites, who, after all, will increase their pleasure.Only if that world does not accept the spontaneous enjoyment of life's pleasures. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />He's not interested in chaos for chaos's sake. He's interested in freedom for the sake of happiness -- which is the very urge of Chaotic Good. Freedom from society's inhibitions to spread joy and pleasure. He wouldn't equally support the actions of a 'true rapist' and one of his persistant followers, for instance, because the 'ture rapist' is violating personal freedom for self-indulgent and dangerous practices. Whereas a persistant lover is just trying to wear away the artificial bonds of society that causes the object of persuit to be unhappy and caged within themselves.That's why, in an LG society or somesuch, he certainly will seem evil...he's destroying the very code of society and propriety that holds it all together. But as far as his followers are concerned, those bonds only exist to surpress happiness and joy that can be had spontaneously without them.*shrug*. If you interpert him as CN or the like, there's certainly nothing wrong with it. I, of course, differ, but....<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
