As has been mentioned, genre, audience, and context can't be ignored. It reminds me of when people say the soldiers in South Figaro raped Celes. No, they didn't.

Setzer tries to kidnap Maria and then Celes because he's a scoundrel / pirate / bad boy, much in the same way Han Solo was in the original cut of Star Wars. The archetype itself is misogynist/toxic, and it's certainly not "okay" to lock women in rooms and kidnap them. But I think the game is quick to show that this was largely for show/reputation purposes, not because he's a sexual deviant. He also does get his comeuppance for all this, since he loses his airship and is found basically drinking himself to death in Kohlingen in the World of Ruin.

Seymour's waaaaaayyyy worse if you're voting purely on how much of a creep someone is.
