On the other: Arya you are like 12 wtf is going on here.
I also think it was uncomfortable in the context of the specific sub-group of GOT watchers who sexualised the younger actresses like Maisie and Sophie even when they were legally children...
I understand peoples discomfort with it though, watching her grow up on screen from a child. But she is a woman now, both actor and character. I believe Arya is 18 at this point. The actress is in her 20s. But yeah, fully understand people feeling odd seeing it though.
- They certainly were... there was much less uproar about Tommen because, ya know, heteronormativty/sexual double standard etc etc, but the rape of Sansa had some huge backlash and the writers/producers, Sophie Turner and George R. R. Martin all had to come out of the woodwork to defend the scene. link, but there are heaps of versions of the full interviews/responses, as well as heaps of people writing about their response to the scene.
I've seen way more rants about Arya's scene tho. I'm positive it has to do with the fact that Maisie looks younger than she actually is & that's why we were all a bit uncomfortable.
The Tommen scene disturbed me especially when I found out the actor was only 16 at the time. If the roles were reversed everyone would lose their mind
Granted, people have rightfully shown discomfort for the Sansa scene, I have seen WAY more backlash with Arya's scene. And I didn't see much complaint about the Tommen scene and that was HELLA UNCOMFORABLE with him actually looking like a kid and Margaery being an adult.
I personally saw nothing wrong with Arya's scene. She should be around 18 in the show, and the actress is older. She doesn't look like she's 12 anymore, even if she was in the beginning...
I felt the scene was very in character for her. Even a savage killer has needs, and she's cared for Gendry for a long time.
I can see some of the discomfort with the scene since we did watch her grow up on screen, but I still like this
intimate scene more than many others in the show, especially from the overrated Jonerys scene. Personally think they are WAY overrated as a couple and that scene was lacking in passion. At least Arya and Gendry still had passion.
In conclusion: whatevs, I'm happy. MY SHIP HAS SAILED! :D
(Now hoping for something to happen with my second ship before they die)
