X-Posted to my tumblr because why not.

SO MANY SPOILERS. ALL THE SPOILERS.

Also, discussion of differences between certain scenes and how they are depicted in the show and the book. Since I just finished the book like, three days ago.

Is it really a good idea to ignore a rape scene just because you want your favorite show to still be your favorite show? Not to mention Jaime's actor pulling the "he has a hand missing and she could fight him off if she wanted because she's able" excuse.

Oh, no, I mean ... I'm still pissed off about that. Lots of people who watch the show are still pissed off about that. And will continue to be ( ... )

Yeah I signed that, HBO were condescending dicks in response, and thanks for the clarification. I know that a lot of people aren't going to ignore it, but I've seen too many that have acted like I said - "I still want to love this show so I'm going to ignore all the sexualized violence problems it has", and for obvious reasons that makes me feel a bit sick.
