Here is a Sansa video about everything she's had to go through yet she has survived it all and has come out stronger then ever and took back her home with Jon. Hope you enjoy :)

I think the reason a lot of people don't like Sansa is simply that they forgot to watch her closely and didn't notice her changing. She started as a child, and did childish things. But she was a survivor for most of the show, and it made her strong, and smart, and angry. Until season 7 we hardly saw any of that in action, but now we are all looking back and realizing that she did change, and now she can act on her rage with all the intelligence she has learned, and really she is just an incredible character and I can't wait to see her take her vengeance.

You can never underestimate any Stark children. They've grown, learned, and played the Game of Thrones very well.

[evaphantomhive]

It pains me how much she's underrated. This girl suffered so much on an emotionnal level, and yet she has the best character development. She made mistakes, and she lives every days regretting it, and get out stronger. This precious soul deserves more love.

I am Sansa Stark, I will always be stark, this is my home and you can't frighten me!

This is my favorite Sansa!

[katpreece]

Everybody please remember that whilst the actor is older, Sansa was only 13 years of age, at the time she watched her dad's head get lopped off.

When you hate on Sansa for being whiny, or for not fighting, or whatever, you're hating on a 13 year old girl whose gone through torture and torment.

I love Sansa. She's flawed, but I think she's a reflection of many of us who aren't like Dany, Jon, Bran, or Arya with these super-power like abilities or resources. All she has is her humanity and human abilities.

This video brought two things to my attention. 1) Despite being a manipulative bastard, Baelish' speech was really quite amazing and inspiring. 2) what Brienne said to Jaime made me love her more. Despite in the surface having more in common with Arya, I think she understands Sansa better than anyone, and in the heart they have the most in common. The perseverance while remaining beautifully human and good.

I truly hope Sansa doesn't disappoint!

People only understand a swordfight, not subtle sad.

She's from the very begining my favorite character. She has faced the WORST since the very begining (remember Lady... she paid for Arya's mistake), she has survived, with bravour, and honor, keeping pride of her starks's blood, she's the strongest of them all, she's the quiet storm, the one who can survive to anything. One who has not turned into a complete evil person. I find her punishment with Ramsay pretty wise, eaten by the only ones he ever trusted, she gave him a proper end with that final lesson: "don't trust anyone and don't underestimate me never again". If she wants the power it's because she wants what she has a right on: winterfell and the North.
She wants the name of her family to be restaured, she has no such pretentions of being "the ruler of the seven kingdoms". She is doing what is the only thing to do: taking back her home, her kingdom in the name of her family and for the people of the North, and she's ready to avenge them all now. She's ready, she needed tor learn things ...
She has silently maid her way, she was an observant one, some saw it as a weakness but she learned a lot, directly from her family, then from Cerseï and Joffrey, the Tyrell, littlefinger, her aunt, Ramsay, etc ... she knows a LOT of things now.
She's resilient, and now, way more wiser, stronger, focused, she's a woman, a Lady, almost a queen ... a fighter with words, with the power of seducing those in front of her.
She knows exactly now how this world works, and she will keep on going silent, as a wolf she has endured this long night and now is ready to roar, growl, bite for the good of her family, her kingdom, the North and her people. Long live Sansa.
She is a mix between Elisabeth of York and Elisabeth Tudor to me. Two survivors and two powerful queens, because of their abilities to survive of the worst.
As Tyrion once said "Lady Stark...you may survive us yet."

[MonumentToSin]

She was an ordinary girl with ordinary dreams. That's what makes her extraordinary. She survived what most of us could never endure, and she did it without super fighting skills, or dragons, or magic. Daenerys and Arya fit the mainstream idea of a strong female character, but Sansa shows that femininity, gentleness, and kindness are not weaknesses. A maiden can be just as a strong as a warrior.

[theamvgirlx]

People don’t like Sansa cause she’s realistic. She’s not a “weak” character at all. It’s just that she’s constantly being compared to women who are UNREALISTICALLY strong.

[eligirl]

Why does everybody keep saying Sansa was annoying? She was annoying for S1 and that's it. We are 7 seasons deep now. Stop saying it.

[masonkruize]

Emotionally speaking, she is the strongest and most fortified character. She endured torture, manipulation, rape, and being made a pawn of. I love the reversal of roles between her and (You know who) at the end of Season 7. She's grown from an inexperienced pup into a full grown wolf.

[Megan-glqw]

People, both male and female, hate on Sansa because of internalised misogyny. She is mistreated, abused, raped and tortured constantly and yet people call her weak and stupid, blaming her, the VICTIM, of what others do to her. This summarises the whole problem in our patriarchal society. She is the victim. She is not to blame. She is not weak or stupid, she is stronger than many of the male characters in this series and especially than those who that have tortured her so much.

+ this video portrays her strength and braveness so well. Love it!

This make me cry a waterfall... I didn't like her in the start of the show. But then i realized that she was a *child*. Raised to believe in fairytales, be a lady and marry someone wealthy. A reflection of a big part of the women's childhood. She had her life ruined, family killed, humiliated, raped and didn't fall apart. She managed to fucking survive without weapons or the fighting shit of Arya. Even passing in a lot of crap in HER HOME, she still fought to take it back. (Was Jon interested at doing this in first place? I think tf not.) She's a powerful leader and knows how to play the game.
She's the real queen in the north. She's Sansa Stark.
Even without dragons, fighting skills or supernatural bullshit, she's wise, been through a lot of crap in her life, but she's alive.
She's a survivor. And that's why i fucking love her.

People rushed in to judge Sansa only cause as a girl she dared to dream big, but she was polished her entire life to be a lady (note the direwolf refence). However, none of what happened was her fault. Ned Stark didn't go to King's Landing because of her, but because he felt it was his duty to serve the realm. However, she is the Stark child that suffered the most. We do not even get all the inormation about how Ramsay abused her, we know what he did for her wedding night but not everything. Also, she was completely alone since Ned lost his head, and she was so young. She deserves higher praise for surviving all the chaos and daring to free Winterfell (even tho Jon led the army she was the one who pushed him to, and he didn't even want to at the begining).

[xghvnoe]

I like Sansa because she is simply being a GIRL. No protection she has during a lot of seasons: no dragons, no army, no faceless and direwolf. So hard to be just human in all that hell. Love her. Hope she will be the Queen .

[nandinisahu]

Sansa is the most underrated and misunderstood character

[Hindibookstores]

i wish her to be queen of seven kingdoms with all her mightily a iron lady of house stark.

[sunminlee]

Everyone disliked her since the beginning of the show, but I always thought she was exactly a girl in her age would be. Every girl would dream of something fancy, a charming prince to sweep her off her feet, a lovely castle to call her own some day. Maybe it is stupid and childish but she was a child back then. Things she has to gone through were terrible and not every person can be rebellious and strong, fighting her way through it like a warrior. She was naive and perhaps fragile, yes, but who wouldn't be in her position. I always cheered for her, wishing she would be safe and happy. I love Arya too, but that never deterred me from loving Sansa as well. The Stark girls are always favorite of mine, and it doesn't bother me at the least that Sansa was normal and too realistic. I think she is absolutely brilliant.

[Luc]

The underrated, quiet strength of Sansa Stark:

Sansa has endured more unjustified cruelty than all of the Starks combined. She was the main subject of Joffrey's torments and abuse for years. He gleefully tortured her psychologically and seemed at his happiest when Sansa directly suffered, mocking her losses and shoving that pain in her face, threatening her because he knew she knew what he really was: A scared, pathetic little boy trying with all his might to be big and strong.

And if you think she couldn't do any worse than Joffrey, you'd be wrong. She escapes him just to land in the hands of Ramsay Bolton. Ramsay Bolton, who flays people alive for shits and giggles. Ramsay Bolton, who hunts people like animals and feeds them to his dogs. Ramsay Bolton, who raped her and beat her and forced her childhood friend to watch as he did it.

Yet, through all that, she never forgets who she is. She's literally seen the worst side of humanity but still believes in them. She still sees the good in people after enduring two people who can only be described as pure evil and a jealous queen who isn't much better.

If it were anyone else, they would've broken a long time ago. But not Sansa Stark. The pain only made her stronger and wiser but no less compassionate.
