\t\tFor all you \u201cGame of Thrones\u201d fans, here is an observation that should make a point the men should just give up, because women are the ones who are winning in this race for the throne. The long-anticipated Season 7 is off to a fantastic start and is all about ladies in power! Not only did showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss tease the highly anticipated meetup of Jon Snow (Kit Harington) and Daenerys (Emilia Clarke), they gave viewers close to an hour of women dominating in Westeros. The statue of Ned Stark (Sean Bean) in the crypts of Winterfell stands as a symbol of the now extinct patriarchy of Westeros. Gone are the father figures; women now reign supreme in almost every kingdom. As Olenna Tyrell (Diana Rigg) says, \u201cI\u2019ve known a great number of clever men. I\u2019ve outlived them all. You know why? I ignored them.\u201d<\/p>\n
In the episode, Dany holds a strategy meeting with Yara (Gemma Whelan), Ellaria (Indira Varma) and Olenna, resulting in an epic speech by the Tyrell matriarch. Although Tyrion\u2019s (Peter Dinklage) plan of attack seems to be the end goal for Dany, Olenna throws in her two cents and clearly gets under Khaleesi\u2019s skin. Will she use Olenna\u2019s wisdom to her advantage? If she\u2019s smart, yes. These two could be the new power couple in Westeros. \t\t<\/p>\n
\tBy the end of this episode, Yara and Ellaria end up in Euron\u2019s (Pilou Asb\u00e6k) hands and most of the Sand Snakes die. There\u2019s pretty much no doubt Euron will be \u201cgifting\u201d the ladies to Cersei (Lena Headey), which can\u2019t be a good thing, especially when she\u2019s firing off a dragon-killing bolt launcher. \t<\/p>\n
\tShall we get to the good stuff, though? Let\u2019s talk about that one former lady-in-waiting who has somehow survived six seasons despite enduring the most horrendous of circumstances. Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner) is without a doubt the woman to watch on \u201cGame of Thrones.\u201d She is now poised to have more power than ever before and we can\u2019t wait to watch her journey. In Episode 2, as Jon leaves for Dragonstone to meet Dany face to face, he names Sansa acting queen in the North, which means she can now rule and make decisions for her kingdom. Also, with her sister Arya (Maisie Williams) on her way to Winterfell, the Stark ladies are truly set to be in control. Their mother Catelyn, (Michelle Fairley) would be so proud. \u201cThe reality is Jon is the military man and the sexism exists where he believes that a man should be in charge. And in reality, Sansa is a really wonderful politician and he doesn\u2019t recognize it enough to appreciate it,\u201d Turner told Entertainment Weekly of her character in Season 7. \u201cIt\u2019s difficult because military-wise, she doesn\u2019t know anything. And she\u2019s kind of butting in on that respect. And he, on the other end, is trying to be more of a politician, and he doesn\u2019t know as much as she does. If they could just learn to collaborate.\u201d Well, it appears Jon and Sansa have learned from each other and will hopefully work with their siblings Arya and Bran (Isaac Hempstead Wright) to defeat the enemy no one is ready for: The White Walkers. What is fairly obvious though is that with women like Sansa, Cersei and Dany in charge, Westeros is on fire. \t<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
