you guys gotta remember this comic is from a time where women are treated like property. ofc no one's going to help her, ofc they're going to side with the men. women are supposed to be seen and not heard, supposed to be submissive. that's why everyone is mistreating the minister's wife and her; because they think it's in their right to do so. not trying to be a sjw, but this is pretty period accurate. even if they were to rape her in the middle of the street people would blame her and say it was her fault for seducing them etc.
