I for one never saw any of the rapes as erotic imlad Send a noteboard - 21/08/2012 05:04:11 PM
Like I said, for me, there was no eroticism in those scenes whatsoever.

Perhaps the eroticism in those scenes for other readers stems from something psychological (and no I am not making any sorts of judgements about peoples psychological status). Read the links below...

Twain's use of "nigger" was mordant and satirical. Martin's use of rape verges on erotic at times, and that is what so many people have a problem with--not that there is rape, but that it's treated as entertainment more than it is a horrific physical and psychological assault.
Death to the Regressives of the GOP and the TeaParty. No mercy for Conservatives. Burn them all at the stake for the hateful satanists they are.

Firstly, Camilla is a she. Secondly, though I won't speak for her, regarding the rape in the novels, Ghavrel - 14/08/2012 02:23:19 AM 2869 Views

How is that a violent rape? At worst it would be statutory rape. Cannoli - 17/08/2012 11:53:44 AM 2883 Views
The wedding night is statutory. I would describe the later rapes as fairly violent. Camilla - 17/08/2012 12:13:26 PM 2986 Views
That was her only sex scene, until she induces him to have outdoor sex to get pregnant Cannoli - 17/08/2012 07:20:09 PM 2760 Views
It is not necessary to provide a scene Camilla - 17/08/2012 10:49:20 PM 2794 Views

I think you misread one part Dark Knight - 14/08/2012 04:51:34 PM 2906 Views
I think that the Rhaegar and Lyanna stuff does look like rape in the first book Stephen - 14/08/2012 08:10:27 PM 2676 Views
"Looks like" is this case meaning "explicitly stated to be that way"? Cannoli - 17/08/2012 11:56:48 AM 2681 Views

I think the TV series handles the problematic Dany/Drogo relationship better Werthead - 17/08/2012 12:20:16 AM 2812 Views
Re: I think the TV series handles the problematic Dany/Drogo relationship better Camilla - 17/08/2012 06:40:12 AM 2874 Views
I think it messed it up by showing forced intercourse without the verbal consent Drogo DID obtain Cannoli - 17/08/2012 12:07:14 PM 2865 Views
I still find it difficult to read it as anything other than a coerced consent Stephen - 17/08/2012 01:08:15 PM 2607 Views
A perpetrator-less crime then. Cannoli - 17/08/2012 07:26:26 PM 2762 Views

Yes, I'm aware, or I might have locked it already. Legolas - 21/08/2012 06:17:29 PM 1341 Views
I'd ask that you do lock it. Stephen - 21/08/2012 10:00:48 PM 1417 Views
