Yeah the same thing happen to a different girl see the word you used "different" as not really relevant to do this the Sansa is bad writing at it's finest. The writers have these rape fantasies and violent revenge scenarios that they try to disguise as female-empowerment they tried to show us that Sansa was this a strong woman who will go back to Winterfell to claim it and who wouldn't be intimidated by Ramsey's girl and thenthey have her raped it's classic shock jock misogyny. For some time now,Game of Thrones episodes have followed a familiar pattern: Large swaths of episode are eaten up by the infinitesimal advancement of various plot lines, many of which are deeply boring, and those scenes are then offset by the inclusion of some Cool shyt. Usually, this Cool shyt takes the form of a sword fight, or a dragon cameo, or a Sam shivving a White Walker. Last night’s episode seemed to be following that pattern Arya walked through a door! Cersei had some conversations! Tyrion got sidetracked! but instead of a dragon, we got a rape. This was an episode that said, “Sorry for making you sit through 55 minutes of nothing really happening, but here, enjoy this rape!”
This post is a crock of shyt. Rape in a context of power, historically happened all the time (not saying ANYTHING about it is redeeming because it isnt.)
Rome and its empire would not have began had it not had been for the rape of the sabines. The Boltons are a shyt family, Ramsay himself is a product of a rape. His twistedness is in his blood, also something HAD to give in order for Theon to act. I think seeing Sansa being raped is that thing. Having a woman be raped in a fictional show isn't misogyny. Terrible, oh yeah. But through Europe (which Westeros is based off of) rape after a siege or sack was common place. And its not like Ramsay hasnt been set up as a shyt individual from day one...we all saw this coming from the moment Littlefinger said she was to marry him.
Even Cersei said it in the "Blackwater" episode.
"If the city falls these fine women, should be in for a bit of a rape."
This is a reality that these women, particularly noble women, had to think about in this reality even more so during times of war. To NOT include it would be both juvenile it would insult the viewer I think. I honestly think they made a good call in not going full blast on the visuals or in the book version of what happened. But you are (I hope) an adult and you should know that rape, murder, slavery, human trafficking, and all the other horrid shyt in this show exists in the real world. And if you want your fictional, rough world to feel immersive in ANY way...unfortunately these things have to happen.
And you clearly don't understand tv writing when you get 10 weeks to flesh out a story, every episode ISNT supposed to have huge set pieces. This is a classic bridge episode where things happen to set up bigger decisions. It sounds like you just dont like the show, so stop watching. Go watch a program more episodic like the Simpsons.
I still find it funny that people bug out on this show about this rape and that Jaime/Cersei scene from last season, but are perfectly ok with a pregnant woman being stabbed to death IN THE STOMACH, or man's head being crushed till it explodes.
