I think this world is very interesting and the story is so compelling, but we are unfortunately forced to experience it through the eyes of an apathetic shitheel of a man who only views women as mothers or whores. This is intentional, he's not a sympathetic guy, but ugh to know more of the world without Marcos' dumb ass in the way.
