Reply to comment by thewallflower0707 in Completely hooked by the writing style and research into "the Five" by Hallie Rubenhold. "There are two version of the events of 1887.

She's written a number of books mainly focussed on sex workers. Her most famous work is Covent Garden Ladies which Hulu used as inspiration for Harlots (An amazing TV show.) She's also written some fiction which I think is about a courtesan but I haven't got round to it yet so can't confirm exactly what it is about.

Why is it worse for HBO to depict a rape scene than one where someone is flayed or eaten alive by dogs or burnt at the stake?
