Does it, though? I know when I was a young-un, I was reading articles about how to give fancy blowjobs, 69 while standing up, and put food on my partner - not a diagrammed explanation of how to have missionary sex. Before I even had sex, I was concerned with how to "spice it up" since clearly simple sex moves weren't…

There is more to it than sliding in and out, though! ;)

I'm pretty sure that was a typo, but I'm enjoying imagining someone so whiny that their stomach multiplied into stomachs for extra excuses.

I think that is less important, more important for character development than for plot. I was disappointed they left it out, but kind of understood - most viewers have probably forgotten what we're supposed to know about his wife at that point, and they probably would have had to take up 5 or so precious minutes of…

Don't you feel like they'd tease it, though? And not have her brother listed as the heir to Dorne? I feel like they'd get some traction out of a mystery person playing Arianne, rather than never mentioning the character.

Yeah, I just read in another comment that books 4 & 5 are being condensed into one seasons, so I can see her not mattering in the grander plot.

Were the trumpets the best? I bet the trumpets were the best.

Oh my. They've got to cut out a lot, then!

As the heir to Dorne, the only kingdom in Westeros that isn't controlled by the iron throne, she could reasonably be expected to be important at some point. I mean, evidently someone else is the heir now, but her specific place in the story will be influenced by both her gender and her personality, so this just seems…

Doesn't Arianne also kidnap Marcella? I mean, she's important as a character in her own right, but she is also an active participant in the story as it has already been set up!

No kidding!!

Relax, that isn't at all what I said. I was just criticizing the "doing something different than I did with marriage is an insult" logic. Either it's good logic or it isn't, and it isn't. No mention of rights or immutable traits or anything in there. It's going to be okay.

That's interesting, I didn't know that!

Except for the white dress and gloves?

Yep!

Individual fights, yes. Years (or even decades) of unhappiness, no. At least, not my conceptualization of marriage.

Lol yes, exactly.

In reality, I doubt people would have a ceremony every five years, probably more like handing in some paperwork to city hall to keep up an ongoing contract. There will always be people who take the opportunity to celebrate, but that's already around with people renewing their vows and whatnot.

That would still be a very silly thing to do, I'm not gonna lie. If the point of the photo is "married people signing a marriage license!" getting the facts of the "married" part seems a little important!

Haaahahahaha
