Exactly. I was readding some comments on Reddit about the episode, talking about how bad they felt for poor Alicent. And I'm like wtf??
She is EXTREMELY privilged. She loves to act like she sacrificed everything, but all she had to do was lay there for 5 minutes while the king betabuxxer fucked her.
Compared to the regular folk, she lives an AMAZING life. She doesn't have to do anything, she doesn't have to work, she has access to the highest quality foods and drinks. So does Rhaenyra.
They have better lives even than the noble men. Noble men are still expected to fight. Women are not.
AND THEY WANT ME TO FEEL SORRY FOR THESE PRIVILEGED FOIDS??
So foids want to have all these privileges, but they also want to be taken as seriously as a man, who has 50 times the responsabiltieis. Nah, that's not how things work
