// violently shaking g.rrm while demanding to know more about how dowries and widow’s income works
#( this is the niche hill I’m going to die on )#( g.rrm just really has the biggest blind spot where women are concerned because he gives us no details )#( like the widows law protects widows right to their incomes but how are those incomes calculated? )#( is it a percentage of her dowery or determined differently? )#( also I will forever say that the way he uses doweries is lame )#( he treats it just like a money bribe to marry off a daughter and that’s not how they worked a lot of the time )#( and like. he can do what he wants it’s his fantasy series but also I think that’s boring )#( it’s all well and good to treat marriage like a business or political arrangement in your world )#( then neglect arguably one of the biggest parts of marriage arrangements )#*❀ ooc; mun posts
