I read Faerie Tales years ago and never felt that way about the scene you are referring to. Never crossed my mind that it was sexualising a child as it was not the child being written about, but the changeling
Have only read some of Game of Thrones, but have watched it. I liked the grittiness of it, that it was not portraying a medieval inspired time as being all sanitised. Maybe I got over the typical way sexuality and women were presented in other novels I read. The petite, swan necked, pert breasted heroine, who is an educated lady, but can wield a rapier when needed, who is always married to an oaf who is terrible in bed, but finally meets the "one", so is suddenly able to have wonderful sex.
