Apr. 26th, 2011 12:18 amSo I got caught up reading GoT comment threads on
ohnotheydidnt. I know, I know, why do I do this myself?
Anyway, I read some interesting fan viewpoints on the Daenerys/Drogo scenes in the first two episodes.
( WARNING: Discussion of Non-Consensual Sex )
In conclusion, having watched two episodes, I don't think this show is particularly misogynist. It could perhaps be considered gratuitously graphic, but then, so was Germinal. I do think it's pretty racist, but that's a discussion for another day.
