No, it's not a realistic fantasy world. Just because he doesn't pack a ton of politically correct moral righteousness into denouncing rape in a world where it's pretty much established as at least being something unpleasant but to be expected under certain craptastic circumstances, doesn't fucking mean he delights in writing about it. It just means he's not treating the reader like a moron. In the west (and, in some parts of the world, they still do) it used to be that girls as young as twelve and thirteen got married, were raped (or was it marital sex? We think of it as rape, but this perspective has obviously changed over time), and so on and so forth. Which Borgia was it that got married at like, thirteen? I think it was Lucrezia. I don't watch the TV show. GoT world? It's craptastic.

ayrt

I don't expect him to condemn rape at every turn, I just expect him to handle it with a modicum of intelligence, insight, and examination, which he doesn't. He can give Jaime a great arc and interesting character development just from having his fucking hand cut off, but he can't be arsed to deal with the ramifications of all the sexual abuse he loves to write about.

He's writing a fucking fantasy series, for God's sake, I don't think he's required to add an addendum on the horrors of sexual abuse every time a character ends up coming close to getting raped. Do you also want him to add deep, insightful passages every time a character get murdered, or every time a child gets beaten, or even time an animal gets tortured? Every time someone does something racist, or homophobic? Why are you ONLY complaining about OMG WHY DOESN'T HE WRITE LESS ABOUT RAPE OR AT LEAST MAKE IT OBVIOUS HOW AWFUL RAPE IS DURING THE STORYLINE?
