Child of Flame Posted June 3, 2005 Posted June 3, 2005 Just smile, nod, realize he is a troll, or a person with very odd taste in webcomics for someone so 'old-fashioned' ([Yann's] avatar is a depiction of HK-47 from VG-Cats, one of the more well known strips in that comic is of Mario, coming to one of the castles, finding Toad, Toad says 'The Princess is not in this castle but another one' or some such, Mario says 'Who says I'm here for the Princess?', they proceed to turn the lights out and presumably have relations, considering the last panel is a Koopa turning on the light, while Mario and Toad have their pants down. ) Anyhow...I'm back from So-Cal. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Is Yann Mario or the toad?

Azarkon Posted June 4, 2005 Posted June 4, 2005 Some would argue that all taboos (incest, homosexuality, pedophilia, etc.) are a result of fundamental biological processes built into our brains that ensure the diversity and thus survival of the human species. I think there are some truths to this. But I also think that it's a bit naive to conjure the name of "natural biology" as some kind of sacred argument, unless said person is willing to condemn ALL the things humans have done that go up against "natural biology." In fact, I think it'd be reasonable to say that one reason why the world is what it is today is due to mankind's defiance towards its instinctual nature. From this respect, it's not an issue that taboos exist - nor is it a problem that some choose to ignore them. There are doors

I know, I know. I do try not to let myself get baited by bigots, I really do. However, I was raised in an environment that taught that silence equals assent, so to say nothing is to do nothing, and it is worse to do nothing about a wise stance than it is to have a misguided one. Does that make any sense? One changed mind can change the world (and other uncharacterist optimism...). Hope you enjoyed your trip! Cloris

jaguars4ever Posted June 4, 2005 Posted June 4, 2005 Um. SW has had homosexuality in it... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I doubt King Lucas even knows about this, as he's yet to read a single EU book IIRC. Also, LA weren't even aware of Juhani's, er.."inception" until it was too late. In fact, they specifically instructed Obsidian to not employ any major "easter eggs" as a result. ^_^
darth buch Posted June 4, 2005 Posted June 4, 2005 Why is everyone so certain Juhani is gay? I've heard the 'long nights together under the stars' dialogue many times and laughed, but this isn't nearly enough evidence. It's funny and all, but remember she's not actually gay.

I've heard the 'long nights together under the stars' dialogue many times and laughed, but this isn't nearly enough evidence. It's funny and all, but remember she's not actually gay. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Because, iIrc, Juhani was a romance option for the PC in K1. I would say that Bioware forgot to remove this option for female PCs, so there we have it. (Similar error and scenario in the first Star Trek Elite Force game, which was subsequently rectified in the next Elite Force game ... which is interesting in and of itself, because there is quite a bit of homosexual innuendo in Star Trek TNG, anyway.)

Volourn Posted June 4, 2005 Posted June 4, 2005 Juhani is gay. The PC isn't the first lesbian relation she may have had. Talk to her Master, and then talk to a certain npc on the Sith World. And, actually, they didn't forget to remove her romance talk for females; they forgot to remove it for males. This is from BIO... DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.

Gabrielle Posted June 5, 2005 Posted June 5, 2005 I see no problem with homo/bi sexuality in games. That's part of real life so why shouldn't it be part of the game world?
