#sansa stark#alicent hightower#game of thrones#house of the dragon#a song of ice and fire#asoiaf#i am taking them away from you#so few of you can be trusted with them#before anyone is like ‘what about cersei/rhaenyra’#dont get me wrong#ive seen a lot of misogynistic takes about them#but sansa and alicent in particular stand out as being in contrast to another character#who are much more noncomformist#arya and rhaenyra stans are so righteous about their favs being these feminist icons and believe that shields them from being able to sexist#but then theyll turn around and spew takes that are laden with misogyny#im not saying theyre exactly feminist icons#alicent in particular is a victim of the system’s mistreatment of women who then perpetuates that#but that doesnt mean being misogynistic towards them is just#okay???#anyways this isnt a new or very relevant take#just something ive been thinking about#its adjacent to my ongoing ‘asoiaf/got/hotd fans have nuance in your opinions and takes’ challenge that has been following me#also inb4 anyone is like ‘oH lOoK sTaNsAs/AlIsTaNs At It AgAiN’ im not a STAN of any character in these stories#w the exception dunk egg and elaena
