I'm out on voyeurism rape scenes. That's just too much
"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
Okay seriously, i'm done with game of thrones.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

The gay stuff has been pretty PG if I remember correctly. Mostly kissing, no graphic sex.LiveFreeX said:
In a show with beheadings, cannibalism, rape and torture, and castration the "gay stuff" should be among the least objectionable things to someone.
As a status-seeking sh!tlib friend of the gays I say MOARRRRRR! Lezzies too while we're at it.
That rape scene with Sansa, Ramsay, and Reek was pretty uncomfortable, I never like watching rape, be it male or female, on screen.

Aye. I don't think that happened in the books, but we already know the producers want to take the canon in a different simplified direction. It just felt like a plot line to turn up the notch on ratings. We already know Ramsey's a twisted individual for what he has shown he's capable of doing with other women and Theon/Reek.FairShake said:

Do you know how I know your mind is still warped by feminism? This post right here.backbreaker said:
Why?
Because Sansa wasn't raped. Oh by all means, please get caught up in all the news storylines detailing this "horrific rape scene" and how the actors were just appalled by it and on and on.
Please stick with the facts here.
1. Sansa knew what she was doing. No one would force her to marry and if she did, Littlefinger would have heard about it and sh!t would have been taken care of.
2. Sansa wanted to be the Lady of Winterfell. Only one way now to make that happen. Gee I wonder what it was??!?
3. Since Sansa knew being Lady of Winterfell meant getting married, and it meant getting married to Ramsay, she also knew she'd have to give up the puss. After all, she'd be his WIFE
4. The law in Westeros states she's now his WIFE. Again, emphasis now on this word WIFE. Let's suppose Sansa did go crying to the king or whoever the hell that she was raped. What then? Suppose the king called Ramsay into trial with accusations of rape. Ramsay simply says "What law have I broken your grace? I was engaged in intimate relations with my WIFE"
5. And lastly we have Theon displaying shock and tears at watching this. Get real. Theon would have banged her if he had the chance. Yes, I have read the books. A much more accurate reaction would be Theon sitting quietly watching every detail.
The story of this show depicts sex that likely happened in a pretty realistic manner in this fictional story. The feminist PR reps are certainly out in force this week.
Also, agree that this season is so far pretty weak in general.

I think this is really stupid. All they did was make a Joffrey 2.0. We already had the pointlessly sadistic guy.
Also, Sansa wasn't raped. She married the guy then willingly did everything he asked in that scene. She's also a boring character that does nothing but say one liners every 3rd episode while having a sh1tty look on her face constantly. Anything involving her I'm just waiting for them to cut to almost any other storyline.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
Luckily the law in the real world say that a wife can refuse and a husband can be charged with rape. And that is how the scene is judged. Pretty sure it is written as a rape.BetterCallSaul said:
That would be difficult.
In the books Theon is actually forced to participate though. It could've been worse.

Is this why you, BB and the rest of modern media is getting so bent out of shape over this? You can't separate fiction from reality. Let's also not forget that in the scene Sansa was undressing herself. Slowly, but she was undressing. The fact that Ramsay rips her clothes off and bends her over...who cares. If Sansa had finished stripping on her own she likely would have been moaning in the same manner she did during this supposed "rape" scene.
Sorry, but where is the rape here? There never was one.
Also, yes, I forgot Theon serves as the fluffer in the books, however Sansa wasn't there at all. :yes:
I use my real world values to judge the fiction I see. Which is healthier than the opposite.BetterCallSaul said:
I didn't get that impression at all. Nothing in the scene tells me Sansa was enjoying it. Indeed it is implied pretty obviously that Sansa is cooperating only due to Ramsay and his wench's veiled threats and that she is in pain and sad during the scene. Plus it's obvious that she's being forced to have sex in another man's presence, a man she loathes.
Dude, it's a forced sexual act, it's rape. Perhaps you are unable to separate your own reality from their fiction.
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
Other scenes aren't really being judged, like men being castrated or having their eyes gouged out in a gruesome death. This one scene is a non-issue.FairShake said:
Rape (which this scene wasn't) is not worse than death or torture and these things happen in every episode yet this causes all the commotion and it's not even on screen as it should be. It's nonsensical from the belly aching of those offended to the fact that they feel they can't have a rape on screen but can have grisly murders. I feel worse for the guy immolated and eaten the week before than I do any woman being raped. The perspective on things is all fvcked.
