Season 8 has started. I'm not spoiling anything in the text of this post.
Do you watch? Are you caught up?
One of the things the series is known for is depictions of consanguineous sex. While the depictions can be less than positive, the good thing is that they can spark some honest conversations.
Depictions of consanguineous sex and relationships have always existed in our stories, all through history, because it has always been a part of life. Some people do these things. Many more have wanted to or have at least found the idea interesting or stimulating. Some have thought about it without actually wanting to. And if people can discuss these things honestly, that's a good thing.

Relationships are almost always morally despicable, as are many people. And way too much sex, just for the heck of it.
