The thing is viola went out of her way to seduce doflamingo not the other way around.
Seduced is maybe not the right term, Sanji's not good at that. But he managed to make her feel something for him. Can't say that for Doflamingo whom she ultimately wanted to see the demise of.

Dont think its rape tho,more like stockholm syndrome.
Doffy acts gentle towards his subordinate
He's a manipulator, thats his whole theme. There is nothing 'gentle' about Doffy.
Wrong. She seduced him simply to get close enough to eventually betray him, and to also protect her father and Rebecca.
this is also a possibility tbh. Never thought of it before.
Violet behavior is so contradictory cause its visceral and passionate, that's what Oda meant with the Dressrosa reference and if you think about it fully fits the theme of the arc
That's what Stockholm syndrome is dude. It's a mental illness after all.
In Oda’s mind: love/hate relationship

irl: borderline rape. Definitely not fully consensual

there’s a reason why the man doesn’t write romance

Oda CAN write good female characters; Oda deliberately chooses not to so do. Oda has stated that his comic is for young boys and that "girls wouldn't care about OP" nor would boys views themselves as anything more than the hero the women.
Truly unfortunate given the potential female characters have in his own manga.

Japan is the country full of hentai, ntr, cheating, and rape mangas.

Not too hard to imagine what Oda was thinking about when he said Doffy and Viola relationship was too adult for kids given their history.
