Winter's Knight Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 People hate what they fear. Sansa is sweet, polite, feminine, kind, gentle and deadly. She's the proverbial iron fist in a velvet glove-it scares people that someone who seems so helpless and delicate and tractable could be strong.

Kienn Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Because she disobeyed Ned, he specifically told her that if she went to Cersei he would end up dead... And what did she do? She basically murdered her own father if you think about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epyon Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 She's weak, annoying, horribly niave, and mostly helpless....but can still find the time to be rude to/look down on others. Easily my least favorite character in this series.... I actually find Roose Bolton to be more sympathetic than Sansa. On the other hand, I keep waiting for the day she takes that Valaryian steel dagger that was used to try and take her brother out, and stabs LittleFinger in the back with it....

Dr. Pepper Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 PSA: Comic Sans is the sarcasm font. Oh and please, can I get some popcorn? PSA's are such a Sansa thing to do. *passing popcorn* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen Sansa Stark Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 She's weak, annoying, horribly niave, and mostly helpless....but can still find the time to be rude to/look down on others. :shocked: when on earth has she been any of this? Please give me some textual evidence. I mean she was a little bit snobbish and a classist in AGOT, but looking down on others and being rude? She never has been that way with the exception of Arya in one chapter of AGOT. And I have read her chapters like a million times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Pepper Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I thought theyd be a Benjen thing, spreading false information under cover of authority? Benjen, Sansa....same difference. Both are deeply horrible. Both brought down their families. Both ran away. Both missed Jon's b'day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cas Stark Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 PSA's are such a Sansa thing to do. *passing popcorn* That is very funny. Sansa and PSAs, with all of the bestest looking Westerosi celebutants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AryaNymeriaVisenya Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 'Don't tell Sansa' really sums it up. She rats out her own family. In Arya's case it was downright betrayal. In the case of Ned, it was downright stupidity. If she lets Robert Arryn die or aids in it her fate is sealed as a kinslayer. Her arc really needs to end with her defending her family. Also, she is foul about her sister. Aids in her bullying, delights in considering herself superior to her and once wishes she was dead. Now, Jeyne Poole has been punished for that in the narrative. She called Arya horseface only to be told she looks very much like her and is sent to become her and be tortured. Sansa's betrayal of Ned has been narratively punished by her treatment in King's Landing. Her betrayal of Arya cut her off from Lady in the end, however the long running bullying; making her sister feel ugly and useless I don't feel has been absolved. The Alayne Stone thing seems to be at attempt at that but it doesn't seem like a big punishment yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krtmd Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 And sisters. I have 2 teenagers - Sansa vs Arya is my house on a daily basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jojosh Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Basically everything she did in AGOT will follow her foreverIts similar to cat hating jon which has somehow turned her into the evil stepmom and I do believe sansa had a prickly relationship with jon IIRC. Then you touch on how arya is in general doing everything sansa can't or won't do and you begin to wonder what sansa's point is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every big family has that one sibling who is like that. My eldest sister was like that and boy did I hate her for that, but never did I feel like she was a betrayer.

rystine Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Of course the real question isn't how anyone could dislike Sansa, but the very opposite. How could anyone like the bitch?I mean sure, she starts the story as an 11 year old kid. But we all know in the world of Westeros people mature faster than real life, so she's more like 25 at the start, right?And where does she get off thinking men can be good and kind and chivalrous. I mean it's not as though every male she's ever had a relationship with before she left Winterfell were such great guys (Ned, Robb, Jon, Rodrick, Jory, etc... Total assholes obviously). How could that dumb, naive girl ever possibly hope that someone with a penis might be a decent person as well? What an idiot she is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
