A gender-based look on Game Of Thrones

[UltraDolphinRevolution]

At the moment (beginning of the last season, season 8) there are two queens in GoT world: Cersei Lannister and Daenerys Targaryen.

Especially in traditional societies, men climb up the social ladder by conquest/success while woman attach themselves (or get attached to) high status men.
Robert Baratheon became king by defeating the old (mad) king and Cersei became and remained Queen by being his wife and pretending to have his children.

Even the latest episode (season 8, episode 1) suggests Cersei will once again pretend to have a man's children (even though they are somebody else's).

What does it represent?
Men and women tend to have a different understanding of truth.
It can be observed by watching the (boring) debate between Sam Harris and Jordan Peterson.
While for Harris, truth is that which is actually the case, Peterson defines truth as that which is beneficial.

[Spoiler Alert if you have not seen season 8 episode 1]
John Snow now knows the truth regarding his identity. He, not Daenerys should rule the world. Both he and Daenerys are certainly among the more noble characters within this world. How do you predict Daenerys will react once she is confronted with the truth? The Jordan Peterson way or Sam Harris way? Discuss.

I have to watch the whole thing over again. It’s been 2 damn years and there are sooooo many side stories. I do look forward to John and the kelisi getting it on and what the winter king will do next with that dragon.

Anyhow, I think Daenerys will not contest if her head is called for. How would you kill her though? And what will her children think?

Also, who the f is Jordan. I still don’t know all their names. Someone please draw a map! Lol

There is no need for killing her. She just has to accept the truth and give the crown to John. But since - as I assert - women tend to prefer the 2nd way of thinking about thruth (the Jordan Peterson way) she will probably not accept.

BTW she is only immune to fire and it's not clear whose side the dragons would choose. They obviously sense the importance of John (as they only let Targaryens ride them).

 

[slaphappygamer]

I don’t know if she will willingly give up the crown though. Her followers may not want John either. There will be bloodshed throughout the land for this. I see it coming. OOOOOORRRRRRRR.....John being John, he may want to keep this secret tucked away so everyone can focus on the duty at hand. Maybe John quiets Sam?

 

[UltraDolphinRevolution]

I just want to point out that I was right. Daenerys' reaction by questioning John shows that she really wants that throne. If only John could fall fighting while Winterfall remains human.

Any predictions about the end of the series? If they beat the white walkers, then what about the rest of episodes? Therefore I suppose they will lose but some important characters will flee and there will be at least another standoff.

Yeah,

bitches attached themselves to high-status men. In other news, fire is hot.

It's called a "gold digger".

It's called a "gold digger".

If she breathes, shes a thot

 

[UltraDolphinRevolution]

Well, it's not that obvious considering that Daenerys is the main character (the actress's name appears first) and the viewers followed her story for so long. She is the liberator of slaves and even Tyrion has faith in her.
She believes in noble birth rights only so far as it makes her the queen though.

 

[slaphappygamer]

Damn, winter is NOW!!!
I heard next episode is going to be twice as long (1:30). Could this battle be 2 episodes long? I think they win. I mean, there are 6 more episodes, right? That be pretty jacked to see 3 episodes of the dead endlessly marching throughout all the lands. I kind of hope Ms. Sansa Bitchface gets her head decapitated clean off with icy death, then gets eaten by dragons.

 

[UltraDolphinRevolution]

Why do you dislike Sansa?

I was thinking of cerci. I swear I’ll get their names right the second time I watch this series. Lol
