I don't understand the whole gang rape assumption, or the assumption about where the second bomb was placed.

I've listened to the tapes twice, and the only thing I heard which partly resembled rape was the part with Chico and Paz, but Chico couldn't do the deed.

There's another part where Paz is making noises, where she could be being whipped or tortured in some way. I guess the assumption she was being raped is owed mostly to the "rape noises" she makes which people associate with Japanese anime.

Also the second bomb, could easily have been put in her rear end as anywhere else. Someone suggests the worst option, and then a few angry feminists ran with the idea and it became "canon"

About Paz. On the one hand I kinda enjoyed her death since she was a deceitful character. Pretty much the same way I felt about Ocelot at the start of his character arc.

On the other hand, the Paz tapes hinted at character progression. That progression could have been expanded into an interesting arc and conclusion with MGS5. But alas, there is probably already too many young female characters floating around in the plot already at that point, and one of them needed to go.

Still it was a shame to see her go suddenly like that, without proper resolution to her arc. She could have stayed a little bit longer.
