If you hate television so much, then why are you posting in a television thread?

Did BSG turn you gay StA?

I have started to think that way over the past maybe 3 years . I also don't just see men gathering to hang unless you're all already acquainted . It's hard to meet real people that have some similar values just from basically scratch . Gym is a decent place and so is church. Maybe the shooting range and idk what else...
Poker is fun...

Not many women play...

And the ones who do are basically dudes.

Bran as final King is boring and odd. He literally said he wasn't "Bran" anymore. I hope ol Jon Snow get another wife in the North. Be wild while you still can. Sansa probably won't marry anyone so she can still rule without interference. I can see her as a "Queen Elizabeth" type.

Someone needs to carry on House Stark, I don't see her going "Virgin" Queen, that doesn't help keep The North independent after her reign.

I think I said above she deserved Pod and his bedroom talents after all her trials. Plus she could easily bully him, he's used to being bullied by women. It's interesting there's almost no young eligible characters left on the show. Gendry would do but he's got his own castle now and his own spousal problem. About the only available female character to carry on Houses Barathion or Lannister is Sam's little sister. Presumably others exist but we've never seen them, apart from Bronn's hookers of course. Did they all get blowed up in the Sept?

Yeah, that was her first objection when Bran was named King. She will do her duty and make sure House Stark lives on.

If we look at the underlying theme of the show...

The archetypal millennial relationship between the genders.

The aloof passive "post patriarchy striving" male, paralyzed by guilt and self doubt, and the fiery "post patriarchy striving female"... craving the power of patriarchy and becoming the monster she despises.

The resulting narrative was tragic.

Bran on the throne as the ultra aloof, ultra passive male is the exaggeration of the archetype... perhaps he lacks self doubt, but he is lifeless and empty and ultimately demonstrates no redemption of the impass.

As a result many are inclined to want to summon back the dragons and continue burning the shit down.

Jon Snow self banishment beyond the wall is a furthering of the narrative of hopelessness in the current state of gender affairs.

Sounds fucking gay when you put it that way. Glad I only watched ten minutes of episode one before bailing on the midget porn.
