Considering how much the neckbeards are freaking out over female Ghostbusters, a female Bond would make their heads explode.

Now that she mentions being Bond... I could totally see Idris striding out of the ocean in a speedo...

I concur. I thought this scene was a much more powerful acknowledgement of what rape does to women than all of the scenes flat out depicting it, and a cruelly accurate analogy of how our society sets women up for this sort of thing. Sansa was raped because Baelish manipulated her into a situation where she would be…

The Iron Born is a Patriarchal culture so Theon was the rightful heir to the Throne. He had to cosign because it was his by right so he had to abdicate that right to support his sister (who has proven throughout the show that she is worthy of the throne).
