Exaggeration or no, we got the short end of the stick. Visas and The Handmaiden had these great dramatic scenes with you before the Ravager. Disciple just attempts to console you (using a few of the same lines Visas does). Atton? We don't hear much out of him once you finish training him. I also don't recall much flirting at all.
But you are right, the romance options for either gender leave much to the imagination. The males still get a bit more in the end though.
Otherwise I completely agree with her original post. GG
