So "pedophilia" does not apply.

Apparently it does not bother people equally that female characters have male companions who "serve under" them, as well. If, regardless of whether the female in the romance is the player of the NPC, the female partner was always the subordinate one, there'd be cause for complaint. Of course none of the male NPC partners are "small and dainty" because even male body type 1 is not "dainty" (although certainly "dainty" is in the eye the beholder).

They did a good job from all I've seen so far. It's also no shock that these relationships developed in the workplace, like MOST do irl.
