I'm not a fan of GoT at all. But you can't really cement a rule long-term without popping out a few heirs, so you'd think heterosexual marriage to someone politically sensible would be a reasonable requirement. Might as well be someone who would make a good political business partner of sorts. Then again, since this is Game of Thrones, I suppose sex harem dungeons or something similar are also a possible alternative for monarch marriage.

Isn't Dany infertile, though?

I've seen a theory that because Viserion died, she can have kids again. Viserion was part of a trade off for the death of her biological baby, Rheago. I don't know if I buy that but maybe? Also maybe because her relationship with Jon is all destined and shit, they'll have babies?

DA I hate that her destiny is apparently baby factory. She's freed slaves, ridden dragons and led armies. All this pales beside her womanly duty of popping out babies.

Society's attitudes haven't come far since the Tudors, apparently.

I don't think it pales at all. Her having babies was sort of hinted at this season as being a necessity to further her family line and have a successor, as it would be if she were a man.

It really all depends on how they play Daenerys getting pregnant if it happens. If they treat her having Jon's babies as the greatest thing her character has ever done, then that's shitty but if it's more "now the Targaryen line can continue and there will be a heir to the Iron Throne," then that's logical.

Particularly with reference to ruling monarchs producing an heir to the throne.

I was hoping she'd be an Elizabeth I figure.

It's possible, but the books seem to imply that she's not as infertile as Mirri Maz Dur thought - the "prophecy" listing all the impossible things that have to happen before Drogo returns to her, including her having a kid, includes a lot of stuff that can be interpreted as referring to events in the books. So it's possible that she'll end up being able to have a child, as well, to fit with those too. (Whether Drogo will actually come back, or what form he'll be in if he does, is a different question.)

I could liked the idea of Jon being a Targaryen, but not a legitimate one. Then he could have married someone and had kids and Dany could have made them her heirs but could have ruled on her own.

(Anonymous) 2017-12-16 01:37 am (UTC)(link)
See, that makes way more sense to me.

(Anonymous) 2017-12-16 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
How the show legitimized Jon is one of the stupidest plots I've seen on any TV in quite some time. Why did he even need to be legitimized? Whatever.

(Anonymous) 2017-12-16 04:58 am (UTC)(link)
I like your idea a LOT better.
