Is Game of Thrones so popular with women because it's the ultimate combination of female fetish and power fantasies?
>lots of rape >women get exposed, abused, prostituted >women use their bodies and sexuality to manipulate alpha men >stronk womyn defeating men in battle
can you fuck off to Sup Forums with your GoT general cancer? We don't need this shit on all boards.
Tyler Evans
exactly why i dont watch this shit.
Ryder Brooks
it's standard b-movie shlock where you exaggerate the discrimination faced by a group or individual and then the response to that discrimination can be exaggerated too. generally the way to show someone's a REALLY REALLY BAD GUY, it is use a gratuitous amount of rape. it's very morally simplistic.
Camden Evans
Women like for the same reason as men. It's a good show. For fuck sakes /pol, get a girlfriend, make peace with your cunt mothers and realize that not everything needs to be a gender war.
Your becoming the opposite of feminists but just as bad. Maybe you should go outside.
Jordan Roberts
no one forced you to read his tread. fuck off.
Carson Wright
yeah, bump his thread you mongrel and tomorrow the entire board is GoT generalcancer like Sup Forums
dumb sissy.
Ryder Stewart
So what? Leave them alone. Women had been oppressed for thousands of years. Let them enjoy feminism while it lasts.
Brody Roberts
The same response feminists use when you call them out on retarded social media comments or when their hypocrisy is pointed on something that they wrote.
"No one forced you to read it, wah!"
Are you going to call me racist and sexist too? A retarded thread was made on /pol, most likely by an angry child, and I'm calling it out bitch.
Jace Evans
except that i do like got
Owen Richardson
Why is no one talking about today's episode?
Levi Evans
it was pretty shit desu
Zachary Ross
Game of thrones is popular because other people like it.
Other people like it cause of the depiction of the struggle between people over power in a medieval setting.
But as it is popular now it's becoming complete shit. The powerful women meme is ridiculous, Arya or Sansa at this point should be depicted as twisted individuals, instead the revenge against Ramsay Bolton or Walder Frey is depicted as something heroic.
Feeding prisoners to dogs or feeding a guy his sons aren't symbols of female empowerment the way it's depicted, rather that's what sick people do when they want to feel satisfied.
Ian Anderson
Except feminists are part of an empowered establishment agenda and "the opposite of feminists" are a much maligned outsider sexist viewpoint on the cess pool of the internet
Jason Bell
Fuck you OP its a good show.
Carter King
The young stark girls are becoming stronger from their hard experiences. What's wrong with that? Am I the only one who isn't made to feel insecure from a television show? I was happy for the women in that episode.
Luis Young
The battle of the bastards episode made a lot of so called epic movies look like shit.
Aiden Hughes
Croatia trying to protect it's primary source of Foreign investment.
While being completely ignorant to the fact that GoT(on TV) is increasingly becoming shit.
Owen Taylor
Seasons 1,2,3,4 were good. 5 and 6 are just rushed garbage, nowhere near as deep and detailed as the first four seasons. Sure I like the better action scenes but for fucks sake they are really rushing the story way too fast, we didn't even get to see sansa's reaction to hearing that jon snow died then came alive again, and we didn't even get to see Daenarys agreeing to a Martell and Tyrell alliance, they just appear there at the end.
Jayden Davis
to be fair, the Frey pies are depicted as heroic in the books when a man does it too.
the real problem is Jon and Dany being totally invincible because they're the favourite characters of middle aged women and tumblr, respectively
Cameron Cruz
Frey pies are heroic in the books because Manderly goes through fucking hell to try and do it, playing at being the defeated lapdog while still being loyal to the Starks. In a series where it's constantly being hammered that EVERYONE IS OUT FOR THEMSELVES, HONOR IS FUCKING GARBAGE. having one guy who's loyal because he and his lord weren't dicks to each other trying to seek vengeance is a hell of a lot more heroic that one girl randomly teleporting into a castle and feeding someone their son.

>The young stark girls are becoming stronger from their hard experiences. Nope, what pissed me off was that killing Ramsay was a lost opportunity.
E.g. The way he shoots Rickon and then the giant only to make you hate him more to soothe you into the feeding to dogs scene.
I don't want a show to tell me "Hey look at how evil this guy and how miserable he dies", I liked Game of Thrones because it would play with my feels, but episode 9 and 10 didn't change my feels.
On the feeding the sons of Walder Frey to Walder Frey scene, I missed the scene of Arya cooking the meal, that would've been a great scene to develop the character further.
>Am I the only one who isn't made to feel insecure from a television show? Show doesn't make me feel insecure, I just hate crappy character development.
>I was happy for the women in that episode And I was disappointed, I'd have preferred the death of Ramsay in a way that attempts to trick me into sympathy for Ramsay, because that would've been a story twist that would've been interesting.
Sure kill Walder Frey the way he gets killed, but at least use the scene to develop Aryas character into the direction, that the last couple of years shaped her and changed and now she is twisted.
Honestly if you think seeing your Dad get beheaded and then being on the run, getting kidnapped by the hound, then seeing your brother who was your last hope have his head cut off and replaced with a direwolf head, then developing Stockholm syndrome towards your captor, see him die, flee to another continent and join a murder cult, makes you a stronger person rather than a pretty darn twisted person, well ok I can't explain it then, but from my understanding of human psychology experiencing that chain of events leaves you pretty twisted
Jonathan Long
>It's pretty much thinly veiled porn for women You make it sound like it's a bad thing.
Justin Hughes
Women have loved books about rape, backstabbing and sexy alpha males for over a thousand years senpai, it's not a new phenomenon en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tale_of_Genji
Anthony Cooper
>rather that's what sick people do when they want to feel satisfied. I will keep telling the redpill on GoT: If you look close GoT is a satire on the modern feminism. Feminists are all like "we are equal" but then "women should have a better life than men". Your statement is just other evidence for that satire.
Aiden Nelson
My primary problem with the Pie scene was that it was short and a missed opportunity to display contradictions.
Instead it was reduced to "Arya stronk"
>the real problem is Jon and Dany being totally invincible because they're the favourite characters of middle aged women and tumblr, respectively I can agree partially, Jon Snow should've died S6:9, or at least he should've regretted his incredibly retarded decision to storm into battle, which led to hundreds of pointless deaths. Instead he's a hero.
I can understand Dany is overpowered, she has dragons, but the show should show the contradiction between her being over powered and her essentially being a teenager. Instead she is a hero who only makes right decisions, which is just wrong.
Sebastian Davis
>Instead she is a hero who only makes right decisions, which is just wrong. Hopefully she will shift into maximum Aerys Targaryen.
Kevin Cruz
>Instead she is a hero who only makes right decisions, not really.
Isaac King
In the TV show not the book, tell me one bad decision she makes, which is clearly depicted as a bad decision.
Brandon Richardson
Haven't watched this show. Should I start?
Connor Cruz
>You will never have a beautiful woman with a perfect body to carry your children.
I just finished catching up on season 5 and 6 and let me tell you it was the GOATest TV I have ever watched. Nothing can even compete.
I am still in awe at that epic battle in episode 9 and the plot twists in episode 10. Season 6 was fucking epic. Kys.
Luis Bennett
It's because it's one of the only places we get to see strong white men fighting for their families and their people. Most women won't realise or admit to those reasons, but just look at their character crushes and the things they love about the Starks and other traditionalist families...
Austin Anderson
Come on man. Battle of the bastards was awesome.
I don't agree with any of this but what annoyed me was the Rickon scene. Why the hell didn't he fucking zig-zag? It was literally the dumbest shit I have ever seen.
Oliver Murphy
>then developing Stockholm syndrome towards your captor Is that stockholm syndrome? Her and the hound seemed to be on the same page anyway.
Regardless, in the books she has become pretty fucked up.
Elijah Brooks
Watch season 1 definitely, then watch up to season 4, then stop. Season 5 is when it starts getting fucked up and shitty.
Jacob Gray
Yes, it's pretty damn worth to give it a show.
I think that both show and the books are constatly suggesting that Dana is still in the game not because of herself but because of her dragons and advisors. She's just very lucky to have few very tallented and intelligent people by her side.
Hudson Perry
come on dude it wasn't that good, jesus christ
Jose Cox
The fact that this only happens in a TV show should drive them mad. They are so pathetic ...
Jason Clark
>I think that both show and the books are constatly suggesting that Dana is still in the game not because of herself but because of her dragons and advisors. The show vaguely implies she fucked up a bunch, but mostly blames other people.
The book has everyone more or less agreeing she fucks everything she touches and survives by luck.
Jayden Cox
All of the women in Game of Thrones are fundamentally failures who do nothing but get people they love killed.
Liam Ross
>fat burger writes femdom porn in a fantasy setting >jewish hollywood producers mistake it for lord of the rings >he agrees reluctantly >women cream their pants and they end up making millions >everyone keeps watching it but bashes it at the same time
just admit that you're a beta cuck
when a show is trash they say "i only saw the first 3 episodes" but when people say "s1 was 10/10 but s6ep10 was really just jew&jew fanfiction trash" you're basically saying you saw s6 as soon as it aired and you've been watching it since s1e1 but somehow it's bad? what the fuck is wrong with you. an autist lies to himself, to me, to the many faced god
Hudson Smith
So what is everyone's opinion on Cersei Lannister?
I was of the impression that she was an evil person this entire time but those last episode have me questioning my opinion.
It was awesome.
Jace Hall
So Game of Thrones is a soap opera, romance novel female sex fantasy?
Kevin Jenkins
>a show can't get worse as it progresses
are you retarded?
Jayden Evans
>Come on man. Battle of the bastards was awesome.
I could explain at length why both Ramsay's and Jon's strategies during that battle were utter garbage.
But really what ruined the battle for me was the cavalry, how do you move a force that size through enemy territory undetected till the moment the charge the infantry?
Game of Thrones at this point is a show for insecure people who prefer heroism over realism, while it started out as a show that favors realism over heroism.
It's a conscious decision the producers made to appease the mainstream fans, while it is alienating the fans of the books.
Evan Rodriguez
She's one crazy bitch who doesn't give a fuck that she's hated by literally everyone. She's a person who would burn the entire King's Landing to the ground just to preserve her position and power.
I don't get it why so many people are starting to cheering up for her after s06e10.
Adam Parker
>I could explain at length why both Ramsay's and Jon's strategies during that battle were utter garbage. Ramsay would have won if any of his archers could aim, at least.
David Green
i don't think so
but if it got worse why didn't you just stop watching it
there's plenty of other shows out there that aren't "SJW jew propaganda"
David Turner
Or if he had let his archers fire at normal speed, they were firing one volley every 30-45seconds, which might make sense if he had deployed crossbowmen, but archers can fire in 5-15second intervals depending on training.
I can understand that Ramsay's strategic mistakes might be caused by his personality.
But Game of Thrones implies that the 7 Kingdoms are in a state of war for 5 years now, which really means they should have learned basic strategy by now, or at least Jon Snow should have.
Logan Hernandez
Nah. Ramsay would've been defeated by Knights of the Vale no matter what.
Jon not surviving the battle was a part of Littlefinger's and Sansa's plan. But they didn't knew that Jon is protected by plot armor.
Cooper Hall
Because I enjoyed the first few season so much that I want to keep watching to see what happens? I'm not saying it's absolute shit, but it's gotten pretty bad compared to how it started off. You'd have to be quite an autist to disagree with that. Plus there are still some decent bits, but usually most of it is shit, so I watch it in the vain hope I might enjoy it.
Joseph Baker
>watching the show
Nathan Morgan
i dont really judge a season as a whole. i would say for example hardhome or s6e10 is far better than s1e2, or s1e3. cant even remember what happens in those episodes because they were so forgettable. s1 is literally just characterbuilding and then le unpredictable sean bean death (he dies in everything how did people not see this coming)
Joshua Russell
Du Sau du
Dylan Collins
>being evil means you're sick
Fuck you and your stupid meme. Maybe I feel like giving a cruel and brutal death to someone that makes me blind with hatred? That doesn't mean I have any medical condition. It just means I'm evil.
Joshua Rogers
t. normie
Parker Watson
t. normie
Samuel Nelson
t. normie with absolutely garbage taste
Cooper Ward
Seems like you're just autistic
Aiden Harris
>normie >not normalfag Stick to your containment board, robot
Grayson Bailey
Nah I don't agree at all. Everything in the last few episodes was predictable as fuck.
>littlefinger saving them at the last second wow >"cersei theres some wildfire i found xD" wow
The writing in the first season is actually good and the character building is realistic and makes it interesting, then compare that to season 6 with a bunch of "lol varys u dont have a dick" jokes and "u greedy bitch".
Elijah Peterson
>normalfag Gramps, is time to go
Ryder Baker
I didn't like the flow of this season, they felt like they were just jumping from plot point to plot point without much buildup or connection.
Easton Moore
fuck off, /got/ has finally been banned in Sup Forums, please don't bring it back here
Kayden Morgan
>Is Game of Thrones so popular with women because it's the ultimate combination of female fetish and power fantasies? No its because the show employs some attractive men and some of those attractive men engage in full frontal nudity.
Andrew Miller
tbqh if I had a major tv show that was filmed in my country, I would support that too
Isaac Nguyen
I want to fuck Ramsay bolton, I'm so sad he died
Joseph Foster
>Maybe I feel like giving a cruel and brutal death to someone that makes me blind with hatred? If you experience urges like that you should seek professional help and maybe get some meds, they can help you overcome those urges.
>It just means I'm evil. Well in the 21. century we have meds against that.
Jacob Reyes
> feeding a guy his sons
GOT ripping off South Park Scott tenorman must die, they really are scrubbing the bottom of the barrel
Landon Sanders
If you are childish enough to see characters as 'good or evil' then no wonder you are 'questioning your opinion'.
The whole point of the show is that there is no good and bad, that everyone does things for their own reasons.
Dany is basically a megalomaniac who is ravaging a continent with dragons and false promises because she thinks she is entitled to a throne on a completely different continent. She has ruined several cultures because 'hurr slaves are bad'. Yet people still love this character? Why? Because 'muh female empowerment' that most of our blue-pilled normies fucking eat up.
Dylan Perry
legit femanon detected.
Brandon Butler
The show has degrated to "good vs bad xD" because normie retards doesn't have to put any thought to it and eat it up
Josiah Perez
The characters USED to have some depth to them, I'm pretty sure dany is supposed to be somewhat of a naive idiot, barristan was supposed to be there to show that, but they killed him off in favour of fucking grey worm who just makes cringy af scenes with awful writing.
Caleb Cruz
Dany and Sansa were meant to show what being naive resulted in.
Jon was meant to be about honor and oaths. Eventually breaking them and being killed for it. It was ironic and pretty decent.
Arya was meant to be sansa without the naive part.
Jaime had to deal with realizing his family could be wrong.
All of this got tossed out in favor of jon snow is awesome and you go gurl.
Carter Wright
What are you talking about medication? If someone killed your family and raped you you wouldn't be tempted to kill them?
Medication... for Christ's sake...
Julian Rodriguez
Sansa should've been dead long ago. Made every mistake. Arya too. Walking around unarmed when she knows a death cult is after her. Getting stabbed a dozen times and then walking away after a few days rest? The thing that I used to like about the show was how if you fuck up your dead. Then they return Snow, they return Arya, The Hound I can accept, but the others "lost" the Game.
Owen Morgan
I was mirin his well defined jaw/chin.
Ayden Morgan
I'd fuck her
Carter Flores
Great posts by the German.
I don't agree with your hoped outcomes 100%, but your disappointments in the show are spot on.
I'm surprised more on pol don't feel similarly to you about it.
Angel Turner
Any Ideas why they aren't doing Aegon Targaryen VI? Isn't there this important prophecy stating that "the dragon must have three heads" or something like that.
Easton Nguyen
Back to you faggot, quit spamming your stupid show that you shouldnt be watching if you hate it so much anyways
Samuel Moore
Aryas progression should have left her happy with killing people. She's meant to be fucked in the head.
But hollywood writing took over and now she's back to having morals.
Instead of doing something cool, like assassinating sansa or something.
