I think many women do too. By women I mean those past their girly years of reading fanfics where the sparkly vampire gets it from the buffed out werewolf.

A tomboy is not sexy and a girly man is a "sissy".

Why u downloading?
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=letmewatchthis&l=1

i stopped watching it..
The book is so much deeper...at the beginning it was hard to tell but as the plot thickens the series starts trimming wildly, well perhaps not wildly but alot of insight about characters events and motivations is lost.
I started watching E4 but when i saw ho they did Brand's dream about the 3 eyed raven i didnt want to watch anymore.

In the book bran is dreaming about how he is falling and he has a short dialogue with the raven that tells him to fly...
The dream sort of hints that brand might have some mystical powers cause he starts feeling seering on his forhead where his "third eye" is...

It feels like they were too cheap in some cases like with the Direwolves that are hardly ever seen in the show...

I also think some of the causes for actions are badly explained...
There was a scene in the third episode, for example, where littlefingers takes Ned to a whorehouse where his wife is..
Ned gets angry near the whorehouse but its not explained enough why he got mad...

Also the child actors are pretty dissapointing...
Maybe thats why they made Robb and Jon much older than in the book...

why do you think im downloading? I have a slow connection and I like to watch things at 720p+ quality. dont be an abrasive fuckwad, my internet skills pay the bills

I read a great deal, but the problem with books is I finish them very quickly... atm I am enjoying the series an hour at a time, once a week. with the books I would sit down and finish the story in a day or two. what will probably happen is after the series I will read the books.

I've known plenty of attractive tomboys and many women who would disagree with your appraisal of "girly men".

There's a ton of (s)exposition in this series, not sure if too much... Guess I'll still keep watching it.

Series is good but too slow, I'm thinking to buy the books on my kindle, only <$10 which is less than a pocket book in here(I live in a shitty country where they have tax on books so that the population should remain uneducated and easy to control).

I actually bought my first kindle book last month(?) or was it this month?..getting old. Have been reading only free classics on it for several months. Can't say I'm really starting to run out of those but variation is still nice.

Saw some douchebag(my spontaneous feeling for this stranger) with a kindle copy today, his crap took like half a minute to turn on while my kindle turns on immediately. That's what you get for buying a knockoff. People who flount their stupid ipads annoy me, they always buy it as a status symbol. And their screens don't even work now during the summer. Bleh what crap.

Well why shouldn't books have a tax on them like anything else? Or there's something more than just the basic VAT?

In my opinion things related to education should be untaxed.

So for that experience you'd ignore the fact that a tree was cut down and huge amount s of animals suffered or it?
not to mention it further contributes to the deterioration of your own planet as a life sustaining environment.
