@AndreaGarVar @TheAVClub I don't think the sex scene was consensual in the book. The chapter was from Jaime's POV.

@AndreaGarVar@TheAVClub Yeah, also: "“No,” she said weakly when his lips moved down her neck, “not here. The sextons…”" No consent, no?1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@BastienLaurent@TheAVClub At the very least, blurred lines — she said no and then, according to the text, she was more "enthusiastic"1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@BastienLaurent@TheAVClub But still plenty of problematic stuff in that scene, and definitely shouldn't be written off as "consensual"1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@BastienLaurent@TheAVClub With that said, this scene on TV was FAR more clearcut in its nonconsensual nature.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@BastienLaurent@TheAVClub But hm. I do wonder if the fact that the director made it more clearcut was actually better.2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@AndreaGarVar@TheAVClub Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Keeping it a ambiguous is worse.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

@AndreaGarVar @TheAVClub Ha, we're discussing it with fans here: http://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/23k4w7/spoilers_asos_about_jaime_and_whitewashing/ … We're in agreement that it was non-consensual.
