[Split] Moiraine/Siuan Redux


Recommended Posts

Me does not think Moiraine has been with another women either... Unless it was in pure self defence.

 

Me neither. New Spring is proof enough that she prefers men, and thinking of how she was looking at cute boys while being pillow-friends with Siuan, she doesn't seem to look upon their relationship as more than very friendly friendship.

 

But she did send Siuan back to the Tower in the end. I looked upon that as a sort of break-up.

Yes! I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed that. She doesn't even show signs of being attracted to Siuan while they are having a sexual relationship, for crying out loud. Moiraine likes the boys.

Wee...i just read this whole thread. So....i can't remember who i agree with or anything, so i'll just say my 2 cents and you can all say "that's what i said!" after :o

 

Let's see. Ok. So basically, I'd have to say that their time in the Tower was like their time in college. Everyone experiements. Well, a lot anyway. And being there with virtually all women, it's not like there's a lot of choices. Not to say they weren't close, cuz i still think regardless they prob did truely love each other, but of course it's not going to rule out them still liking men. So, its easy to say that once they left the Tower, and then were seperated for years, they went back to "normal society" rules. Just like a lot of girls in college. Hope that makes sense.

 

And I think, and this is coming from my biased lesbian opinion, that reading the books, I'm going to more or less look for a pairing that I'm going to relate to. So....Siuan being my favorite character, I'm going to look for her taking a lover that is female. So even if it's not plainly and obviously written, I'll still find it. (Same with with Wicked). So on the opposite side, of course a female character is going to paired with a male character for those readers of a hetero scene.

 

So, I think it's more safe to say that no one is really one way or the other in WoT. They're jus opened minded. They have their preferences and their circumstances. And RJ does pretty good at writing this all, since we can have this long of discussions talking about it!

 

And keep in mind, I'm one for ALWAYS finding the gay in everyone. So if i can say that a female character (esp one that i really like) could like men....yeah. That's saying a lot.
