Jon Snow doesn’t take the lead in “most macho dialog,” according to an analysis of last week’s “Oathbound” episode of “Game of Thrones.” That honor belongs to Jaime Lannister. In fact, an analysis of the dialog from every “Game of Thrones” episode made shows that male characters are far more likely to use strong words (including the frequent swearing HBO makes possible) than females, regardless of their strength of action. Arya Stark may kick butt while blind, but her dialog still trends toward the soft and feminine. “There were no female characters in the episode whose dialogue appeared gender neutral,” wrote Brittany Swanson from DataScience, a data analytics company, which compiled the stats to prove it.
