Okay...as someone who hasn't read the books. Is the SCENE not in the books or is the relationship not in the books? Cause I could see how that would made a difference in perception...

The scene isn't in the books, but mostly because GRRM uses specific POV characters (and neither Loras or Renly is one of them) who would never have seen this.

The relationship isn't specifically presented in the books as such (at least not in a THIS IS FACT way) but it's very easy to see it from subtext and incidental details, and IIRC the author actually has confirmed that he intended it? I could be wrong on that.

Right, I can sort of see how that might annoy some people. Because I can get kinda grumpy about canon changing myself (but hey, since I got to the series first, I do not have that problem). However from what I understand, there are several sex scenes that are not in the books) that have less complaints?

I don't know, I don't bob around in the misogynist/homophobic/unpleasant corners of the book fandom, because, well…… well, you can imagine. I've been less than pleased with a lot of the added sex scenes, but mostly the ones that just don't seem to be there for any reason other than titillation.

To me, I can sort of see both ends of it. One one hand, this is fandom, and some people are terribly protective of the stories they love - it's not uncommon to hear that people get annoyed by a casting choice to hire an actor with the wrong eye-colour. And I can even get people not understanding subtext.

On the other hand, if they're applauding non-cannon girl-on-girl sex and complain about this...yeah, that sort of says something about their way of thinking.

In my personal, r/l environment, I find this to be a show watched proportionally more by (straight) men, so that might have something to do with it. It is in any case a show that has a big appeal to guys.

As above said: the scene is not in the books but the relationship is canon in the books, according to GRRM.
