the thing is: jaehaerys didn't deny daenerys/rhaenys claims (the great council was a scam, he was endorsing viserys) to the throne for the "good of the realm" or only because he thought women can't rule/he didn't want corlys velaryon behind the power. he did it because if a women came upon the throne before her male brother/uncle, he would bring scrutiny over his usurpation of the far better claimant aerea.

#aerea was the oldest child of aenys oldest male child #and the oldest child of aenys' oldest kid in general (rhaena)#aegon the uncrowned #rhaena the black bride #rhaena the queen in the east #rhaena targaryen #aerea was also maegor's heir #which means nothing but #male uncle before girl niece is very much a precedent set by jaehaerys #“oh but aerea went to the valyrian ruins” she might not have if she was a QUEEN and rhaena was her regent #jaehaerys was ALSO a child like... it wasn't an age reason #king jaehaerys #jaehaerys led to the dance it's actually his and viserys i fault #like... jaehaerys your only claim is a cock #jaehaerys targaryen #viserys i targaryen #rhaenys targaryen #rhaenys the queen who never was #daenerys targaryen (daughter of alysanne)#alysanne targaryen #(could be so much better without jaehaerys existing)#maegor targaryen #rhaenyra targaryen #hotd #house of the dragon #fire and blood #asoiaf #aerea targaryen #aerea or rhaella who knows even #rhaella targaryen
