Does anyone else find the name “Crosswhite” to be extremely ironic? I wonder what the origin of it is... o_O

I have a feeling it is more like gas lighting than “spousal dedication”.

No, you're not alone. I'm pretty shallow too, but with arousal, it moves further inside a bit.

How much do you want to bet that is a douchy “tribal” tattoo poking out of his sleeve?

I haven't seen it for less than $2.49, and that was on sale. $3.99 is the norm.

I live for the Arm & Hammer. It can be such a bitch to find non-antiperspirant in the women’s aisle. Pardon me, but I don’t think it’s a great idea to rub aluminum on my freshly shaved pits. Just asking for trouble.

“ If you have a white cat, then try it when that! If you don’t, that’s okay. I won’t judge.”

That's pretty much best case scenario at this point.

Once again...making Sansa’s rape part of a man’s redemptive arc instead of her own.

I am a costume designer, I am 100% aware of how this works. The focus could have just as easily been on the floor, on Ramsay’s feet, on the ceiling, on ANYTHING.

And this is my point. Your supposition makes Sansa’s rape a part of Theon’s redemption arc instead of about Sansa.

Third option: not having rape as a plot device

My chief complaint: using the rape of a woman to develop a male character.

And once again, the rape of a woman is used to develop a male character.

Thank you for clearly articulating this instead of just implying that I am “grinding my favorite axe.” You've got some really valid points here. I just hope they don't make what happens after all about Theon rescuing Sansa. Girl needs to rescue her damn self!

This show isn't reality. Rape is. Rape being used to magically transform a man is a sickening trope used far too often, especially on this show. Maybe, if they actually showed a beloved character getting raped, and the REALITY of the aftermath of actual rape, people like you might not be so callous about it.

I would prefer they not make rape a plot device honestly. Their only hope of redemption for me is if they DON’T make this all about Theon.

I found myself surprised that I was upset that during the rape they showed only Theon’s face. The only thought I had was “way to make a woman getting raped all about how a man feels.”

I have been called a “professional bridesmaid” upon occasion, and justifiably so. (MOH 2x, BM 4x) I have walked away from two requests to be a bridesmaid. The first was a friend who went completely psycho and money crazy. I was the only bridesmaid with a full time job; everyone else had just graduated college. The…

I recently had an utterly thrilling encounter with a troll on Dragon Age: Inquisition. I’ve have never had an ounce of bullshit while playing the threatening and perilous levels, apparently the “big kids” play there. On this occasion, I was playing the routine setting with two other people. One individual completely…
