    "Where did you dig up that old fossil?"


    I believe that Obi-Wan has stayed true to the Jedi order. Even thought he decided to leave and become a General.

    Dooku left the order but you don't see him hooking up with women... he's more interested in ruling the galaxy.

    Not doing the deed.

    I believe that Obi Wan would wander into mos eisley from time to time, get drunk and tell stories of the jedi, that everyone just wrote off as "Crazy Ben Kenobi". During one of those trips im sure he could of ran into a nice young lady.

    "You'll never find a more wretched hive of scum and villany..." sounds like that's the place to pick up chicks.

    Obi-Wan dies before ever being with a woman...

    ...And thus starts the trend followed by so many Star Wars fans for the next 25 years. :)

    You just know he made a lot of moisture farmers' daughters happy. Even if they were squeamish, there's always 2 Tatooine spaceports. We know what you can find at those places...

    Or syphilis, which can cause brain damage. Maybe that's why Owen considers him a "crazy old man."

    Seriously though, I think Obi-Wan wouldn't be short of female admirers. It all depends on how strong his human urges are because I'm sure he could emotionally detach himself if he wanted to.

    Why is it so hard for people to get that the Jedi are not celibate?

    Even if they knew he had been a Jedi and had been brainwashed, like everyone else in the galaxy, into thinking all Jedi were crazy and/or evil?

    I think it's pretty clear that this Jedi celibacy thing from EPII is revisionist history on part of Mr. Lucas. Not that there is alot of evidance from the OT itself, but these canonical examples from the novelizations are pretty convincing.

    The worst part of it is that the "forbidden romance" angle in AOTC feels wholly unbelievable, since the "Jedi cannot love" rule seems arbitrary and out-of-character for the Jedi, who have always been portrayed more as samurai and knights than monks and priests.

    but GL himself said they could have sex.
    Where did GL ever say/indicate that?

    I think the combinatio of Obi-Wan's desire to remain annonymous, living with the consequences of Anakin's relationship with Padme, and his commitment to the principles of the jedi order (attachment is forbidden)...Obi-Wan would refrain from any kind of intimate relationships.

    In the case of Ki-Adi Mundi, he was granted special permission to get married and have children...due to his cultures low birth rate.

    Besides, it's nice to know I've done something Obi-Wan hasn't ;) As soon as I get to do jedi mind tricks and jump around like him and Qui-Gon...Obi-Wan is allowed to have a girlfriend!

    If a Jedi should ever feel like having sex(which I believe wouldn´t be so often, since they´re all business, business, business all the time), she/he probably did it with another Jedi. That would make it less complicated with the lack of emotions and stuff. Plus, they get really powerful children!

    I never saw Obi-Wan as a very sexual character. In fact, I don´t think many of the Jedi were, even though it was allowed.
    As for Obi´s sexuality: What´s there to suggest that he isn´t gay?

    What Jedi celibacy thing? The Jedi ARE NOT CELIBATE. Lucas himself said so in an interview.

    Krash,

    In the case of Ki-Adi Mundi, he was granted special permission to get married and have children...due to his cultures low birth rate.

    That is because if someone were to have a cranium like that the female of that race would need to have the baby delivered via C-section.

    I still think Ki-Adi Mundi is a useless Jedi.

    It depends: are we talking about Ewan Obi-Wan or Alec Obi-Wan? ;)

    As for Obi´s sexuality: What´s there to suggest that he isn´t gay?

    You're getting him confused with half the other characters Ewan McGregor has played :) (honestly, is there a less Obi-Wan person to play Obi-Wan? The dude likes to wear eyeliner! :p)

    Sorry, sorry, getting off topic. Personally, I don't think Obi-Wan would ever have sex. Not because it's forbidden, but because even though he would be allowed to, would that really be in his character? Because in that situation you'd just be taking advantage of someone, which is definitely not a Jedi-like thing. I think it's sort of the Catch-22 of Jedi rules: you don't have to be celibate, you just can't become attached to anyone. But as a Jedi, you shouldn't be taking advantage of people like that anyway. Quit your whining. You get a lightsabre.

    Again can someone please direct my to the interview in question? Without the ability to read the interview for myself...it could be someone misquoting GL (not like that EVER happens ;) )

    Obi-Wan and Beru had a steamy love-affair between Episodes III and IV. That's the reason why Owen hates him so damn much...because Beru always screams "Obi-Wan!" as they're gettin' down. ;)


    So...no. Obi didn't die a virgin. :p

    Honestly speaking, I don't think that Old Ben was ever intimate with a woman. I don't think that the Jedi do that sort of thing. One time I saw an add for a video game...I think it was Jedi Knight for X Box, and it showed some things that Jedi could not do. One of them was a picture of a hot woman on it, and she was marked out the same way as a no smoking sign.

    If they are intimate, then you can't help but wonder how many times Yoda got it on with Yaddle. :p
