House of the Dragon - Episode 2 - Sexual Violence

This episode will contain some frank discussion of rape and sexual assault, both historical and probably fictional instances as well. If hearing descriptions like this might trigger or upset you, please turn off the show and join us next time we talk about more mediaeval cities. The idea that rape is something that is somehow endemic specifically to mediaeval society as opposed to our own is just stupid. One in six children have been sexually abused, and one in 20 men have been raped or sexually assaulted as an adult. Here in the united kingdom, the highest ever number of rapes that was recorded by police was in 20 21,. when there were 67 thousand, 127 reported to the police in 20 21.
