The first encounter where you catch him trying to bite you and the dialogue preceeding it? It’s pretty sexual/date rapey until you figure out he’s a vampire and he’s been alluding to that and not sex. Knowing after the fact doesn’t change the vibe they definitely did on purpose for the less perceptive players that didn’t notice his fangs or the bite marks on his neck. Personally, I found it pretty funny in retrospect. Which I think was what Larian intended more than any sort of social commentary.
Idk, I’ll remind you that you sleep right next to your other 3 companions, rape didn’t even cross my mind, he comes sneaking and you catch him with his fangs out, if I didn’t notice I would think that he is trying to steal something from me since he’s a rogue. I really don’t see that vibe you mention and with the EA I’ve done that scene more than 10 times. Maybe it’s the fact that he gives the vibes of a predator for a moment that made you think that.
