You do not say where you are from and censorship comment does not reslly narrow it down a lot, but have you thought about reading in your native language? English is obviously the language for genre work right now, but there must be a lot of literature in your language that could interest you.

Is depiction always endorsment for you?
And just to set the stage, I think Dresden books go overboard with the description of women.

The actress was 22.
And honestly, Incest was essential to the plot of Game of Thrones, it is the incident that lead to the whole thing. Bran, and so the audience, had to see who were fucking, so that Jaime can push Bran from the window. If I remember correctly, it was clothed sex at well. Realistic? I mean, some noble families had interbreeding, humanity is weird.
In HotD the plot revolvs around a family that marries their close family, traditionally. I think realism is a bad argument here, but it also isn't a moral failing on part of show writers.
Can 16 y old (character) consent to an adult man? I mean, not really. The show isnt endorsing it by showing it though, and the adult man is a shady character so it isn't a case of "but the good guy is doing it". The scene was pretty artfully shot, it focused more on what the character's were feeling than straight up porn.
There absolutely is unnecessary sexual assault and nudity in GoT. I think you chose poor examples of it.

Ah well, that really sucks. I am guessing the situation with censorship is generally the same in works written in your native language?
