Game of Thronescriticised for its gratuitous depictions of sexual violenceMiguel Sapochnik House of the Dragon The Hollywood ReporterSara HessHouse of the DragonVanity Fair
“I’d like to clarify that we do not depict sexual violence in the show,” she said.
“We handle one instance off-screen, and instead show the aftermath and impact on the victim and the mother of the perpetrator.”
r history-based shows that romanticise powerful men in sexual/marriage relationships with women who were actually not of an age to consent, even if they were ‘willing’.“We put that onscreen, and we don’t shy away from the fact that our female leads in the first half of the show are coerced and manipulated into doing the will of adult men.”“This is done not necessarily by those we would define as rapists or abusers, but often by generally well-meaning men who are unable to see that what they are doing is traumatic and oppressive, because the system that they all live in normalizes it,” she said. “It’s less obvious than rape but just as insidious, though in a different way.”House of the Dragon
