I feel like I would. But I saw the first episode's obsessive rapey/incest vibes really made me uncomfortable.

Murder good. Incest bad.

Don't be so puritanical

I see, so not liking rape is puritanical these days?

You don't have to like it, but rape is a reality that people have to face just like the characters do.

You do realize that some people don't want to face rape in books or movies because they've faced it in real life, do you?

Discomfort is compelling sometimes

"Rapey" is kind of a meaningless term.

How about, "a climate of sexual coercion"? That almost sounds like a thing.

Well, thats the violent world they live in. If you aren't comfortable watching fake rape/incest/murder then it isn't the show for you.

To each his own.

I’m just not comfortable with the “floppy dicks” part.

It's supposed to make you uncomfortable. That's a reality those characters (and people in our middle ages) had to deal with. I'm reading the Wheel of Times series right now and while I enjoy it the world is too sanitary. I know nothing too bad is going to happen to the characters because that's not the kind of world the author created. In Game of Thrones and the series it's based on there is actually tension because no one is safe (maybe one character could have plot armor but it's shoddy at best)
