The rape scene over Joffrey's body was not written thus. Jaime did not rape cersai. That was consenting sex over her dead son's body. I point this out because it matters to further character development. |

Book readers were very upset over the way this was perceived by the tv audience. Producer's explanation did not silence the critics of the scene. |

I never for a moment thought this was anything other than consensual sex. Perhaps with a bit of seduction and enticement on Cersei's part, but usually there is always ONE partner who initiates sex, right? I'm surprised anyone would consider this a rape or anything approaching rape. <Oops, I didn't realize the sex was over Joffrey's body. Had I done so I'd have hoped they both ****** the corpse, and then thrown his body to the dogs.> Anyone want to weigh in on what made Joffrey such a monster? Who trained him that way?

I think he was the product of a loveless marriage void of respect. Robert and Cersei were ambitious and neither had the parenting skills needed to teach a child like Joffrey. |

He was probably born that way. Genetically predisposed. Consider his grandfather. |

Yeah, you're right. Double the psychopathic gene.
