I agree. I was turned off the series because of the incessant rape of female characters. It actually disturbs me that this book series and tv series is lauded in society when it is rape-obsessed.
People said the same thing about the tv series OZ, to which I reply 'Yes it had rape in it a fair amount, but there was a consequence to the rape. The rape was treated as the horrible thing that it is and characters would go seasons still dealing with what happened to them!'
As far as I've seen of GoT, rape is so much a 'of the (fantasy) times' that it is just treated as something women have to put up with.
Also, I honestly don't think it's well written. Rather than having dozens of characters, a good author will combine to have say half a dozen really well written, complex characters IMO

Eh. I'm not arguing that it's necessarily well-written, but when the entire point of the series is to get a wide scope on continent-spanning strife, that's not something you can actually do with only a handful of characters. You might be able to do the same plot with a small cast, but you'd have to have a much narrower scope to make it work, so it would be a very different story.

It might also be a story you'd like better, but that's a matter of personal preference, not authorial skill.
