Game of Thrones Fans Are Still Convinced Arya Stark Is a Lesbian
Viewers shared their thoughts on that Arya and Gendry love scene...
Warning! Game of Thrones Season 8, Episode 2 spoilers ahead!
So on last night's new episode of Game of Thrones, fan favorite Arya Stark (Maisie Williams) had an...interesting sex scene with King's Landing blacksmith Gendry (Joe Dempsie) that left many queer fans...let's just say, unamused.
The reason being is that for the longest time, many fans of the popular HBO fantasy series thought that Arya was indeed gay, and her hooking up with a man, even if it was just to "know what it's like," seemed strange to watch.
