View original post52:22 - Yep. Warder bonds are sexual by default. And when you bring up this stuff in an episode that highlights the Reds’ refusal to bond Warders, it leans even harder on their anti-male thing. Stepin’s never been homosexual, but Alanna’s just going to rewrite his sexuality because she and Moiraine decided it would be best for him.
This is particularly egregious/potentially hilarious. Presumably the logical conclusion is that Rand will eventually end up in lust with Ihvon? And how will it work if he still ends up bonded to his three loves? At this rate I'll not be surprised when they replace Rand's revelation on Dragonmount with a Sense8-style orgy where he's fucked back to happiness. 'No man can think of death then' as Myrelle would say!

I grow ever more thankful I didn't watch beyond the first episode. *NM*

To be fair, keeping up with RAFO ain't exactly time-consuming these days

Yes, the psychological factors can definitely be a significant part of it.

As if it wasn't already difficult to get these images out of my head.

For once I'm more critical than you... well, on one point, anyway.

Add Loial to the list of characters done wrong

I liked Loial - among the best things in this episode (though that isn't saying much sadly...).

It's a rumour that's been going around - and it wasn't a criticism, it'd be a good move really.

Surely he's not dead? Just wounded, humiliated and out for revenge...

For story reasons, I doubt it.

Exactly. Rule number one of TV: if they don't die on screen, they're not dead. *NM*
