In this episode of Learned Hands, the Official Podcast of the Westerosi Bar Association, Maester Merry & Clint from Laws of Ice and Fire and Special Guest Learned Hand Kristine Kippins ask: Who are you allowed to love, have sex with, and marry in Westeros?
Our analysis this week includes:
- A departure from the Pod’s normal Question Presented format to give a long, wide, and thicc survey about sex, sexuality, and the law!
- Answers to and discussion of Lo’s recorded questions.
- SO MUCH Oberyn Martell thirst!
- Discussion of whether it’s okay to be gay (it mostly is!)
- #Jatin stanning as per usual.
- Thorough explanation of laws around consent, polygamy, incest, marriagablilty, and divorce!
- A DRAMATIC SKIT featuring Kristine proving her Learned Hands bona fides by doing a bad Jon Snow accent!
This episode is a necessary prelude to Part 2 of our Let’s Talk About Sex series, coming soonish: Let’s Talk About Sex, Pt. II: Rights and Discrimination
Supplemental reading:
-Lo’s wonderful essay on masculine embodiment in ASOIAF, and here's Lo's twitter, you should follow them.
-NobodyExpectsTheButterfly on the complicated relationship between Dany & Irri.
-Interview with Pedro Pascal on Oberyn Martell's punk rock bisexuality.
-Shiloh Carroll's excellent book Medievalism in a Song of Ice and Fire and Game of Thrones.
