is tywins whoring fact or fiction?


Recommended Posts

So basically what your saying is that you don't want Tywin to have been a hypocrite.... You could say it was possible Varys did almost anything, but all the evidence still points the other way. This is a circumstance where you would have to prove Tywin didn't whore, not the other way around.

How would that make him a hypocrite?

Evidence other than Shae in his bed (Something the TV Show confirmed was NOT a Varys move):


-He spent a decent amount of time in Lys.


-There is a tunnel from the Tower of the Hand to a brothel used by Tyrion to visit Shae. Varys said something along the lines of, "The tunnel was built for a Hand who had to be discrete."


-He basically got off watching his men rape a young girl (Tysha).


-He ordered the rape and murder of Elia Martell and her children and later sent Gregor Clegane on a rape and burn spree through the Riverlands.



There are clues to him not only having a fondness for whores, but a Joffrey'esque sickening affinity for brutality. Tywin was more like Roose Bolton with his bad habits, clever and discrete. It creates an interesting parallel with Joffrey(or Jamie/Cersei) and Ramsey.



In response to the OP: Yes, Tywin's whoring is a fact.

:shocked:

"And make no mistake—this was the last time I will suffer you to bring shame onto House Lannister. You are done with whores. The next one I find in your bed, I’ll hang."

that could've EASILY been varys.

Define easily. When Tywin was done taking a shit it would have been hard not to notice a whore in his bed. Unless you are implying Varys kept a record of Tywin's time in the privy and planned it so that it coincides with Tyrion's entering and Shae's presence in the room (??????).

Some things are up to dispute and others are simply not. This falls EASILY into the second category

TV show doesn't confirm anything in the books

And?

He used the word "honor", do recall the Arryn words

No he didn't, GRRM even said the scene was unpleasant to all involved so probably safe to assume he didn't "get off" to it

What does any of that have to do with whores? Half of it isn't true anyways.

-show =/= books

-Tywin spend an unknown amount of time in Lys. So? Not everybody spending time in Lys goes to the pleasure houses in Lys.

-There is a tunnel from the brother of Chataya, to a stable. There is no tunnel from the Tower of the Hand to the brothel.

-Tywins description/reaction when Tysha was being raped is never described

-Ordering brutal deeds does not mean he does them himself
