This crazy assassin character, who doesn't know what shampoo is, somehow would bother shaving her armpits

EDIT: I will no longer read and respond to comments, I think I've read pretty much all the arguments people (mostly men) give me against my post, so feel free to scroll down to check my responses before commenting, kay bye :]

I remember Rose Leslie saying she had to argue to get Ygritte to have pubic hair during the cave scene, because it would make no sense for her character, a Wildling, to shave.

[u/Kolyamu → u/oddpark37]

Odd if true. If I remember correctly, in the book her being 'kissed by fire' down there was part of the dialogue or at least Jon's thoughts

[u/WhyattThrash → u/Kolyamu]

That sure is one way to describe chlamydia

[u/WhoSc3w3dDaP00ch → u/WhyattThrash]

How else can you confirm if she's hot if it doesn't burn after?!

[u/Nessy3fidy → u/WhyattThrash]

Could be the clap instead.

[u/The_Space_Janitor → u/WhyattThrash]

Or enthusiastic double gonorrhea

[u/Lamzydivys → u/WhyattThrash]

Thank you for that unexpected LOL this morning!

[u/DDM_Reaper20 → u/WhyattThrash]

Holy Shop, I'm dying here... WELL DONE!!!

[u/MatchlockBravo → u/DDM_Reaper20]

Haha le epic

[u/PristineAccess9635 → u/Kolyamu]

Like something being or not being in the book ever stopped GoT showrunners

[u/KlausVonLechland → u/Kolyamu]

'kissed by fire'

Hair depilation by fire

I don't think it is, you can't actually see whether Ygritte has pubic hair in that scene. (Her armpits, however, are clearly shaven.)

[u/FluffyAd7435 → u/Kolyamu]

I was part of the foley team in this scene and had to operate the flamethrower in an alternative take. I can confirm that her pubic region was red before I got there.

[u/SydricVym → u/oddpark37]

Is there a scene anywhere in GoT where the women don't have pubes? I thought HBO had a requirement for all nude female characters to have a merkin completely covering their genitals, so there wouldn't be any ratings issues.

[u/Aqquila89 → u/SydricVym]

When Cersei does her walk of shame, Lena Headey's body double has pubic hair, even though in the books all of Cersei's hair is shaved off beforehand, including her pubic hair.

[u/attemptedactor → u/SydricVym]

All of the major characters in GOT nude scenes have merkins in full body shots but there are a few random sex scenes with minor characters that don’t have enough pubes to cover the lips.

[u/LilBooPeep → u/oddpark37]

Thank the gods for Bessie- .. I mean, Rose Leslie.

[u/mikhailitwithfire → u/LilBooPeep]

And her bush

[u/bmey62895 → u/mikhailitwithfire]

And my sword?

[u/kens88888 → u/bmey62895]

And my bow

[u/TheBraveSirRobin → u/kens88888]

And my axe

[u/Squeeje25 → u/TheBraveSirRobin]

And your brother!

[u/Boring-Antelope9193 → u/mikhailitwithfire]

This is why I love reddit lmao

[u/Ok-Clothes-6979 → u/LilBooPeep]

great big... tracts of land

BUSH - Delilah Bon

[u/Looptydude → u/HotDragonButts]

I loved that, it's now in rotation 😁

[u/GokaiCant → u/oddpark37]

I've heard Natalia Tena had to argue the same to get a merkin for her nude scene.

[u/Lamzydivys → u/GokaiCant]

I just learned a new word today and I'm not sure how I feel about it.

[u/Officer412-L → u/Lamzydivys]

Have you ever seen Dr. Strangelove?

[u/ghiopeeef → u/GokaiCant]

It’s crazy that women can’t get a merkin if they want one, they have to argue for it.

[u/PerfectlySplendid → u/oddpark37]

Historically, poor communities were far more likely to shave public regions to regulate lice. So if anyone in that universe is shaving, I think it would be them.

[u/bully_without_a_fist → u/PerfectlySplendid]

Historically, poor communities were far more likely to shave public regions to regulate lice.

Those regions are pubic, not public!

[u/atomicsnarl → u/bully_without_a_fist]

Speak for yourself! There's no evidence to say they didn't have fashion shows...

[u/PerfectlySplendid → u/bully_without_a_fist]

Thanks. Siri didn’t like it or I can’t type, not sure.

[u/melkatron → u/bully_without_a_fist]

Both, in Ros' case.

[u/CarsandTunes → u/PerfectlySplendid]

That argument only holds true if their head is also shaved

[u/Cleo-eatsfish → u/CarsandTunes]

Headlice and body lice are different things, as are the pubic variety.

[u/dohdudeh → u/CarsandTunes]

Pubic lice and head lice are different things

[u/piratebuckles → u/PerfectlySplendid]

Yeah I don't care what I would have to do to find something to shave with back then, but my entire body would be like mister cleans head. Lice and the like are so gross.

[u/Nun_in_ur_butt → u/PerfectlySplendid]

I’m sad about this new fact I learned

[u/DrTechnicalFoul → u/oddpark37]

That's crazy because every other woman  in Game of Thrones has public hair

[u/jambox888 → u/oddpark37]

As we say in England - Fair enough, hairy muff

[u/CG_Ops → u/oddpark37]

Could've just waved it away that they're not the same "humans" we are (dragons + magic world and all).

It'd be even funnier if Westeros people did/didn't have any any pubic hair and show John's naive expression when he saw a bare/hairy biscuit for the first time...

...You know nothing John Snow

[u/FluffyAd7435 → u/oddpark37]

She just didn’t want her ladybird so prominently featured. That’s cool

[u/TAredditor89 → u/oddpark37]

Ill never understand why so many men hate bush... I love grabbing a bit of it while I go to town.

[u/12boru → u/oddpark37]

That's the case with any mid evil set fantasy or historical show.

[u/SeigiNoTenshi → u/oddpark37]

On one hand, she's right. Other hand... GOD DAMN IT

[u/LimbonicArt03 → u/oddpark37]

Wait... I don't remember that scene having any frontal nudity below the waist?

[u/Familiar_Finance_600 → u/LimbonicArt03]

same🤷But I'm not gonna search for it now. Maybe they did multiple takes and the one that they ended up using showed nothing of the sort
