lol, rape stories are in the bible, guys. This is a common literary theme.
I remember in English 205 or whatever first year English is called in university and one of the first lectures was on "male rape fantasy" in literature. I'm 19 sitting there thinking, I'm supposed to have a rape fantasty? I actually still find the notion that it's a universal fantasy slightly offensive; however, you'd have to be ignorant of literature to not realize rape is a common theme. If you're going to start getting prudish about rape in GoT, don't start going back through other literature, including the book that every pearl clutcher keeps on their bedside table.
