As far as I can remember no, there's no rapey stuff in the first 2 seasons at least.

Sexually it's pretty tame (well, to a European) - definitely much more so than in terms of violence. There are a couple of 'rapey' situations in the series, e.g. someone not taking no for an answer at first and getting *very* pushy (and that's later in the series IIRC), but no actual rape takes place.

Not specific, but in case anyone doesn't want to know ANYTHING nothing rapey / sexual so far, but lots of gore and some quite emotionally hard-hitting upsetting points. A 15 y.o. who isn't gore-averse should be ok with it.

cheers for that, keep in mind I am talking about the game, not the tv series.

If your daughter sat through Ep. 2 without a flinch, she should be ok with the following ones. I would say that the premise of Ep.2 is the sickest one (in truth it isn't, because it's not very well done, I think it's the poorest ep) albeit not the most graphic. There's no sexual stuff, so she should be ok.
Speaking of which [spoiler] I think the kidnapper was a bit of a cop-out. It's obviously it was only made to make the player reflect his decisions, but I found that it broke the immersion due to it's bluntness. I would have liked it much more, if the kidnapping-situation would have had multiple completely different endings dependent on your path throughout the game. I think they should have had one path, where Clementine dies, maybe by the hands of said kidnapper, but I see why they refrained from such.[/spoiler]

Ah, gotcha. Your "we watched" made it easy to think you were talking about the TV series, not the games.

What now? Are you watching a Let's Play on YouTube or something?
My answer was for the TV show, but it applies to the game as well I guess.

yeh i meant to say played rather than watched, but it feels so much like a tv series ya know. Well episode 2 had some pretty gross out moments (the legs) but thats half the fun of this kinda thing.

People seem to be swapping in and out of talking about the game and the TV series.
I assume you're talking about the TV series PigLick. Yes, in the next few episodes there is a little bit of domestic violence that's actually quite grim.

He said he meant the games, SubJeff.
And no, there's absolutely nothing remotely rapey in any of the five episodes. The closest it gets is a rather tawdry (but consensual) "deal" that's referred to but not shown.
Though the kidnapper's more than a little menacing.
