There was a controversy a few weeks back when the Tiger Beatdown feminist blog did a massive post (http://tigerbeatdown.com/2011/08/26/enter-ye-myne-mystic-world-of-gayng-raype-what-the-r-stands-for-in-george-r-r-martin/) all about how all the female characters in ASOIAF are horrible and GRRM is writing pseudo-medieval fantasy just as an excuse to show loads of rape. I haven't read the books or seen the TV show but that's probably the best place to go to get a line on the complaints.
