Lit A character with a different sexuality in Star Wars EU?

That can be rectified by CGI during post-production. After all, they pasted Lee's head on a stunt double during Episode III, they can always paste on a functional ...

 

a functional what

 

Mansabre.

 

mansaber what's that??

 

To a dark place this line of thought will take us.

 

are you saying it's like a darksaber then?

 

I'd rather they focus on the plot which they aren't doing a good job of then sexuality as the sexuality I've run into lately in content specifically SWTOR leans towards one night stands and towards gay content ( The new BH event adds flirting and it appears to be gay only I could be mistaken but so far 5 for 5 have been gay options) (neither of which appeals or has any real interest to me) While that may or may not reflect the real world (I don't interact with terribly many people in RL and as a result I'm not sure what % peoples actions fall under at the present time ) part of the enjoyment of Star Wars is that it is an escape from the real world. Maybe if it was some different species with some different behaviors it'd be interesting but, generally when different sexuality comes up it seems to be designed more from out of universe purposes than in universe.

EX: A Certain Jedi in SWTOR has a leading position in the Order and the Order has a policy of non-attachment. They happened to have been attached to the point they got a kid that they hid from the kid's father who they served near and interacted with for years with both parties in ranking leadership positions.

While this may be something that happens in RL it's not necessarily something one desires in a fantasy universe. ( Although some people do like that type of thing.

 

No, it can't be a darksaber, (using your original line of thought of being a functional asexual) because that blew up.

 

yeah i agree Chessalvakia i mostly read star wars to escape from gay people as well.

 

so you are saying that this "mansaber" would not blow up then?? im still in the dark here tbh

 

Please, Mods, unlock the old sex thread so we can keep it all in one place.

 

Many is the night that only the respite of a good Star Wars book has kept my mind off the waves of gays crashing against my front door.

Well, the important thing is that you keep trying.

 

I'm not saying that at all! Don't trip me up and put words in my mouth. Unless you are hinting that via the darksaber analogy, Dooku has a poodu fetish?

 

im so confused im still trying to get you to say "penis" right?

 

Pitchforks ready. Torches lit.

BAN HIM!

 

HIM! HER!

 

You say penis, I say lekku.

 

look i am not the one talkin bout tyranus getting dooku on his saber now am i

smh really

 

Please explain.

 

This got interesting while I was out. Maybe I should spend more time in Lit if it gets this silly.

Interesting what we read into the books. Glad I'm not the only one on the Janson and Hobbie front. Anyway, I think I've said all that I need to say on this topic, and if not you've all covered it for me.

 

no

i used to be on board with this but tbh i've come back around to it being a hetero-life-partners sorta vibe. which is what the canon best supports anyway.

i am actually serious though about Jaster/Jango and Dooku.

 

Felix Unger and Oscar Madison?

 

exactly!
