History of Feminism

thanks for sharing.

I had my suspicions as well, but wasn't sure. Cersei is one person who I definitely would not miss if she happened to die a horrible death, but no one deserves to be raped and I do believe she was a consenting cunning manipulative participant in her little game. She's such a wicked person. And HBO did a piss poor job of directing that scene and their whole team probably suffers from severe groupthink. Its good to know I'm not alone in that observation. This deliberate ambiguity is part of the problem when it comes to real life.

Jaime is another one who I wouldn't miss if he died horribly. The dude is not a good person but does show the duality of human nature where one can be good to some people like his tortured brother and and Brienne, while still being a complete asshole by casually trying to murder poor Bran who did nothing wrong except witness the incest.

I'm not sure why I'm drawn towards the deception, manipulation, sex, and violence in that show, the worst aspects of human nature. I like how Daenerys liberates people from slavery and misery.

Whats more shocking to me than the outrage at the Cersei scene, is the lack of outrage over the very horrifying and brutal rapes at Crestors. And that's just plain disgusting. Its very uncomfortable to think that real human beings have to experience such evil even today. Those poor girls in Nigeria.

sigh, I feel conflicted about promoting this sort of stuff in fiction by giving my money to HBO to produce more of it. I doubt they would be receptive to sternly worded letters to tone down the rape.
