Kaycee7: So because the show is rated 18+ then that means only those over 18 will watch the show? Come on, look around you and you'll see lots of secondary school students who are obsessed with the show, bearing in mind that the average SS3 student is 16. Even on reddit there are tons of fans of the show who are under 18. By the way, keeping one's virginity isn't something that only under 18s do. There are many girls that believe that their virginity should be protected until marriage or at least till they meet a partner who they are sure to spend the rest of their lives with. And I'm not for or against virginity, I'm just pointing out how movies influence people's behavior. The people who were inspired to try out the Russian Roulette weren't kids. They were grown men. There have been a lots of other cases. For instance the movie Deep Throat was key in modifying people's views towards watching pornography. It's a statistical fact that the consumption of pornography spiked after the movie was released. I'm not asking you to strain your brain to identify themes in movies and books. Actually if your brain needs straining in other to identify easily recognizable themes, then maybe you lack the kind of intelligence or knowledge needed to spot these themes, and I'd advice you stick to consuming movies and books just for entertainment purposes. I read Animal farm for the first time when I was 10. It was all just entertainment for me because I didn't have the knowledge to recognize it's underlying message. But when I read about 20th century communism and how dangerous the ideology was, the message of Animal Farm became VERY EASY to recognize. I mean go on Goodreads and see intelligent people giving review on books. Hardly would you find anyone who just reviews a book based on it's entertainment value. Same thing on the Reddit sub dedicated to books. Smart, knowledgeable people care more about the materials they consume than just how it entertains them. This is actually what separates average writers from good writers. The reason Chimamanda is so successful owes a lot to how well she explores culturally relevant themes. If I met someone who when I asked what they thought about Chimamanda's Americanah and all they said was that it was very entertaining, I wouldn't have a high opinion of such person. 11 Likes 1 Share |

isaiah9:Enough of this argument abeg. If Dany was a man and Jon a woman, Dany would be the heir. So it still comes back to Jon being the heir because he is a man and Dany a woman. Simple. |

Goodness me! Can you guys stop already with this leftist feminist brouhaha. It's getting boring and tiring. Nothing will make you lots not to see a feminist agenda in everything. This has gone beyond normal critiques, this is low complex, paranoia and obsession. Haba 7 Likes |

Endy10: I never said the writers of the show purposely included the Arya sex scene to manipulate female audiences. I just explained how that scene could influence the behavior of young girls because it's a scientific fact that movies influence humans behavior and I stated examples. On the issue of the feminist agenda, this one is glaringly obvious and I've presented my arguments in convincing fashion and no one has since provided any reasonable rebuttals. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

Fadedvoices2: You can ensconce yourself in your ivory tower of close mindedness and reject all my arguments without even provided a convincing counter argument.

Blockdock90: One sex scene cannot manipulate the female audience. Bro we've been watching sex scenes on the show since the first episode. We've seen rape, orgies etc why will that one scene manipulate us? Arya is facing the end of the world, what is so manipulative about her trying to experience sex with a person who's her friend? 6 Likes |

Endy10: I don't see how anything on my profile has to do with this argument. The person trying to do the convincing here has been me. I've even posted links to online sources supporting my claims. Maybe I'll be convinced that my arguments are wrong if my responses are quoted with convincing arguments, rather than ad hominems and mockery. 5 Likes |

Blockdock90:GOT is a show with lots of nudity, sex, strong language and violence, so it goes without saying that this show is not suitable for young audienceS. The "little girls" you cited in your epistle are in no position to be watching game of thrones and if you as a parent allow your underage child to watch it, then you have failed as a parent. 7 Likes |

Please it's okay bikonu. Fact is the feminist agenda talk would never end but it's a bit tiring. But yet no rebuttals to Blockdock90 's assertion. Moving forward: Please as Jamie said Cersei wasn't telling lies about her pregnancy, does it mean the witch she met in Season 5 or so was wrong? (The witch said she'll have 3 kids, Gold would be their crowns and gold would be....). Could GOT play with or forget such details? Or has she double fooled Jamie? |

Blockdock90: You proved nothing . When folks said Jon should sit on the throne because he’s a man , is that feminism? Abi you no get sense ? With all the atrocities men committed in GOT and everything they did to women ,is that feminism? You just don’t want to have sense. |

LeSulk: Gives birth when exactly? Is it when the Night king has finished destroying Kings Landing or when the war is over and you now see "one year later"? |
Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by Nobody: 10:25am On Apr 25, 2019 |
Fadedvoices2: So I'm the one that doesn't have sense despite all my arguments which haven't been properly refuted and despite the corroborating sources I've posted that obviously no one bothered to read. I already explained how the excessive highlighting of the atrocities performed by men in the earlier part of the show is part of the feminist agenda to represent the world as anti-women, ruled by rapist, misogynist and corrupt men who regard women as property. And then what we are getting now is the manifestation of the agenda to provide a solution to this representation, one which I've argued involves empowering women while simultaneously disempowering and emasculating men. Since this argument has resorted to insults I'll pull out of it. No one should bother quoting me as I won't be posting anymore comments on this thread. Enjoy the show and have a nice day. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

Seunpaul01:yeah, I can't wait to see whether the foul creatures that she gives birth to will make a difference in the war against the Night king. LeSulk:Book Littlefinger would have killed Bran or cooked up an excuse to leave Winterfell with the Vale army once Bran told him "chaos is a ladder".

I laugh when I see people arguing about who will sit on the iron throne and who will marry this, who will get that, will Jon and Dany have an happy ever after. Permit me to burst your bubble, Starting from the next episode, shiit will hit the ceiling. It is all about survival and when you are trying to survive, titles and royalty won't mean shiit. At the end of the season, there [may not] even be an iron throne |

Something still baffles me, in Season 7 when Jon captured the wight and took him to kings landing as proof to Cercei about the imminent threat the Night walkers brings. Going back to the North, I thought the Wall was built so as to protect the Northerners from the magick of the Night king, then, how does a wight survive down South when the magick of the Night king can't go over the wall? Wouldn't it be easy peasy for the Night King to cross over the Wall without even needing a dragon to bring it down, and how could the Night King's magick survive that far out even when it's not within his range. 7 Likes |

geezyk: The wight can, the white walkers couldn't.. Have you forgotten one almost attacked the lord commander Mormont in season 2 or so at castle black south of the wall?? Also since he touched Bran and Bran came south of the wall there was no more range. 3 Likes 1 Share |
