After seeing Loras sucking Ranly cock, it is a good moment to say 'I told you so'.

Also:

Through entire serial Ranly is depicted as being same as Robert in his youth both by looks and temper. So, no way gay.

I must shamefully admit that I completely missed the Renly and the Loras homosexual thing. Didn't even think about Loras being gay. I must re-read the books to get a better understanding.

I had a lot of friends who didnt see that either so I explained that to them after the scene at the tourney where littlefinger points it out and then 10 min later BAM we get hit with the blatant and overly obvious gayness of Renly. I really wish it had been more subtle

[DobroVece]

Well, slap my cheeks and call me Dorothy.

scene at the tourney where littlefinger points it out

Can someone please explain this? Is this a book or series thing?

I meant the part when Littlefinger points it out. Didn't watch that part of the episode, and I don't remember it from the book. So I'm a bit confused how I missed that, but never mind, anyway thanks for the info.

[Jaime Goldenhand]

At the tournament Littlefinger and Renly have some witty banter going back and forth. When they make a bet Renly says littelfinger could use the winnings to buy a friend. After he wins he tells littlefinger that its a shame because it would have been nice for him to have a friend. Littlefinger gestures to Loras and asks when Renly will be having him. (something like that)

I didnt get that at first either, it is WAY more blatant in the show. I was talking with my mother about it and she said that it was very, very subtle in the book. I totally missed it, and to think I call myself a diehard fan.

[Jaime Goldenhand]

Dont blame yourself. I can only remember that Renly was slightly effeminate (peaches, nice clothes, rainbow gaurd) Loras went into that rage after renly died and killed the gaurds and the fact that Loras said he took Renly's body to a "secret" place that only they knew about

There were another more prominent pointer to the fact that they were having an affair in the fourth book, I think it was something about Loras and Renly having an habit of "praying" together on some nights. I don't remember the exact words, but the sentence was delivered with a very meaningful "... praying". I think that was what opened my eyes to it.

[Jaime Goldenhand]

Another great example of easily missed hints

[Lordinquisitor]

Another hint that Renly and Loras were gay. Slightly vulgar.

Jaime once threatens to shove Loras Sword so deep into his ass that even Renly wouldn`t be able to find it.

[Jaime Goldenhand]

lol i do remember that one and its my favorite example

[road2discovery]

No wolves in the fight with the wildlings in the wolfswood. OUTRAGE!

I have to say seeing Viserys die screaming was almost as good as seeing Joffrey die gasping will be

How about you use spoiler tags for the impending deaths of characters? Not all of us have read the books yet.
