* AbuseMistake:
** Keifer Porter abused his wives, psychologically as well as physically, and managed to convince the eldest wives, who could have divorced him, that it was all in good fun (or, in one case, that the thirteen-year-old he tortured and raped provoked him).
** Possibly, Balin Brindle is a victim of this. He is rumored to have sex with his mothers (actually all but one are aunts, who fill the social role of mothers), which is seen as damage to his reputation, but no one does anything about it, like investigate whether he is forced to do it.

Inaccurate description. The book literally says "when Eldest walked in on it."

* AccompliceByInaction: The princesses' late father is mentioned to have been an ExtremeDoormat, who stood by and watched while his son-in-law emotionally abused the younger princesses, and one time even tortured and raped one of them in the room next door. Though it is not clear whether the latter is just an exaggerated accusation- he might not have been there at the time. There is also Eldest, the eldest princess, who could have divorced their husband. She was told about his crime afterward, but did nothing, because the (very beautiful) husband had her wrapped around his little finger.

She literally walked in on it while he was told about his crime afterward, threatening to cut Trini's face and not only 'did nothing' but did nothing, cleaned her up (so it didn't look as horrific as it was) and attempted to convince her that it was her own fault before the matter was brought to the queens. All because the (very beautiful) husband had her she was entirely wrapped around his little finger.the finger of her beautiful husband. The ones that did nothing were the Queens, who prioritized the will of their eldest daughter over that of the victim.

* YouGetWhatYouPayFor: If a woman wants a child they have three options: They can either swap their brother (if they have one) for a husband, they can pay the eponymous "brother's price" to marry another family's brother, or they can go to a so-called crib, which is a bit like a brothel, but more focused on conceiving children. A brother's price can range from two-thousand to five-thousand, depending on whether the man is a commoner or royalty. The men in a crib cost ten per night, but there is the risk of catching an STD, which is incurable. Considering that a woman might have to try for a dozen times or more to conceive a child, and a husband will sleep with all the sisters in a family, the "cheap" option is actually the more expensive one, as explained in the Discworld example of this trope. A family is mentioned where one sister went to a crib before she and her sisters married. The whole family (newborn children included) died from the ensuing STD.
