You know, I could go into every one of your points and tell you how you’re wrong but instead I’ll just say it doesn’t matter what you think/want because as it stands my infant daughter can legally travel with me on flights and I’ll be bringing her with me whenever I want, your opinions be damned.

That’s why I said we all suck, at least part of the time, and sometimes unintentionally ;-)

Well I think the fact that you are even worrying about this shows that you respect other people’s space. If you’re a larger person, there is really nothing you can do since we haven’t yet invented Tardis technology, but I’m more annoyed by men (and some women) who give no fucks about opening their legs as wide as they…

Yes, I think the honor of the drawing of the shade is bestowed upon the person seated at the window...that doesn’t mean I can’t begrudge them their power, especially if there are using it willy nilly.

“The impulse to differently politicize the body rather than depoliticize it altogether is a fool’s game”

This had already made my day, but then I noticed that it’s filed to “go fuck yourselves”...I bow down to your lack of fucks.

Ugh. You are gross. Yes, 19 is technically an adult, but it’s still super young to be naked on television in a rape scene. She is not a porn star who makes the decision to get paid for sex, she’s an actress playing a character who may be uncomfortable with nudity, which is her right since that’s not her job. Finally,…

D/s relationship. Seems consensual. Nothing wrong with it as long as it’s not harming anyone else. I sort of have a problem with them doing it in public, since other people haven’t consented to being part of their scene, but she’s not disturbed and he’s not a asshole. They are just kinky.

Yeah, it’s disappointing that although they got the casting right so many of the plotlines involving women were basically victim of assault, victim of sexual violence, victim of poisoning, or “Dragon Lady.” Maybe Marvel felt it already fulfilled its quota of kickass women with Agent Carter and Agents of Shield.

Well I just think it would be nice if we’d see more pairings in the 3-5 year range, or (shockingly) the same age. Ten years is definitely on the edge of the age-appropriate spectrum. Decade matters too: I’m 33, and when I look at 23 years olds I think “baby,” but when I look at 43 I think, “maybe.” Also, in my circles…

I watch it too and in the episode where they hooked up my Mom turned to me and said, “Now that is a MUCH more interesting relationship than one with Skye” I couldn’t agree more.

“Ride him to the dawn” is now my new favorite expression. I think I’ll use that in some sexting this afternoon.

Just realized that Rosario Dawson is a few years older than Charlie Cox too! The show definitely has some issues with its treatment of women, but at least they got the casting right.

I was just remarking to my husband how refreshing it is that in Daredevil Kingpin’s (Vincent D’Onofro) girlfriend Vanessa (Ayelet Zurer) is 45. She’s gorgeous, but definitely looks her age...D’Onofrio is still 10 years older than she is but baby steps and all.

Where’s Margaery?! She wasn’t outwardly miserable (because she’s a boss bitch who is playing the Lannisters and will get what she wants), but I think her and her cleavage enhancing dresses deserve some mention don’t you?

Yes...nineTeen.

People were mad about Dany’s rape, especially since it deviated from what was depicted in the books. As for the others, I get your point about all arranged marriages consummations essentially being rape, but there are significant differences between the couples you mention and context is important. Cat liked Ned and…

Yeah that is a gaping hole. In the books, it’s clear that EVERYONE has heard rumors of Ramsey’s brutality. Hunting women with dogs is not the sort of thing that stays quiet for long. Knowing what we know of Littlefinger, there is no way he doesn’t know exactly what Ramsey is. My only hope is that he and Sansa are…

Excellent point. I wonder if they didn’t show her because she’s still a teenager though.

Feeling the same. Having read the books, I kept wondering what route they would go. Part of me thought they would delay the marriage until more players were in place, possibly setting up a Brienne rescue, or maybe have Roose tell Ramsey to tone it down before the consummation, but I guess this is the most logical…
