The Game of Thrones returns to HBO tonight.
The HBO series is much more raw when it comes to sexuality (sex sells after all). Incest seems to be acceptable as a way to keep the noble bloodlines "pure" (so long as your married to your sibling, infidelity is another matter). Infidelity, however, is frowned upon...and bastards more or less reviled.

The sociopolitical aspects of homosexuality haven't been addressed in the series yet, however, we have seen a pseudo-same-sex relationship between Dany and her slave that is more about teaching Dany how to seduce her Dothraki husband. And we have an apparently long term same-sex relationship going on between Prince Renly and Loras, Knight of the Flowers. It's a little kinky but there is definitely a loving relationship there.
Will we see more of the homosexuality that is only vaguely alluded to in the books?
