In Defense Of Arya's Naked Sexual Intercourse

Grow up. She did. Perfectly legal. At worst it was clunky because she had to untie thirty different straps and shimmy out of her long johns. Winterfell is freezing and somehow, Gendry managed to stay hard enough during her uncloaking to start the sex without any semblance of foreplay. That’s impressive.

This is a woman who watched her mother, brother, and tons of friends die. Then she went blind for a while. Then she learned kung fu and prosthetic Hollywood makeup techniques. She’s traveled across the world and seen all manner of shit. She’s not a kid anymore, as much as you want her to be, you perverts. Get a grip.

Everyone is losing their minds. “She looks 10! Does this make me a pedophile? Ugh that was totally unnecessary.” Dear God, shut the fuck up. That’s not only insulting to Maisie Williams, it’s insulting to pedophiles and their victims. There was less outrage over the Michael Jackson doc, and that was actually about pedophilia. Let’s get some fucking perspective here.

People talking about having to avert their eyes. Jesus Christ, we’ve seen rape scenes on this show. Remember when Ramsey Bolton raped Sansa? Where were you then?

Anyone who says “she’s like my little sister” is a pervert. She’s not your sister, Tommy. It’s a TV show. Don’t send her a birthday present.

Maybe the most hypocritical take of all?

Uhm, are we forgetting that Team Portnoy is a group of children? Dave swaddles himself in the skins of young boys. And now we’re righteous about an of-age actor showing she’s not the asexual assassin you all wanted her to be? Please.
