No I see it as the reverse. The are a variety of responses to Sansa's marital rape. People want to discuss it. "Progressives" like you want to shut down the discussion.

Even if they aren't the first consideration, then can be considerations.

The message is pretty much the same: women and feminists, stop complaining.

Pure genius. Welcome to the lefthand path!

If the shoe fits.

That's what the books says to do. Cleanse society.

Yeah you could be right. Or he could just be super religious and following the holy book to the letter.

Maybe you're right, but I think Lancel is like the High Sparrow. No ulterior motives. They're just waiting for the right time which is why they let him walk. They'll pick him up later for his crimes which is why Littlefinger needs to get out of King's Landing.

There's something different about rape which is sort of emblematic of patriarchy in the society as a whole (which say, Arya and Brienne are working against, and Cersei is bitter about.) As Jaime tells Brienne, "they'd have to kill me first." But then because of his double standards advises her to think of Renly

Be grateful for small things. They gave us that scene with Stannnis and Shireen so we will doubt Stannis will listen to Melisandre and sacrifice Shireen. They didn't kill Bronn!

I like the reviewer's theory. They're clones or androids or something. They don't have full rights which is why they can't leave of course. But it's odd that they don't have an orientation program or anything. Just "follow the rules or you'll be killed. You don't need to know why or what happened to you."

My hard comments means you seem to admire or respect Bolton's "cunning" when you shouldn't or at least I don't. As I said, his cunning and betrayal led him to a point where Tywin is dead and Stannis is marching on Winterfell.

Daario Naharis would disagree. He's having a good time tapping that.

She told Ramsay that Tyrion was kind and didn't consumate their wedding. Ramsay said he'd make her happy. I guess he was lying.

The North don't serve them. They're on the verge of revolt and will only pay their taxes after flaying. An unhappy Sansa could lead the North in revolt. And if they kill Sansa? Then certainly they'll see a revolt.

Roose knows realpolitik which apparently you don't. As he told Ramsay, you can't flay the North into submission.

Who wouldn't want to marry the Khaleesi and Mother of Dragons?

Except Tyrion told his father he wouldn't rape Sansa.

"I'm not minimizing Ramsey's cruelty or his violence in the slightest. Reek's horror mirrored my own."

Haha such nonsense. She said Tyrion was kind and hence that Ramsay was being unkind. She can tell he's a psycho. It was rape. She didn't want to have sex but believes following Littlefinger's plan is the only way to move forward.
