Thank goodness somebody brought this up. I have been wondering, and seething at how people could say that Elves are self-centered and like to wash their hair. Elves are strong, mighty beings, granted not rugged, but fair, and delicate. Delicate does NOT mean fragile. They are full of wisdom. They are not human. I think that we are looking at them from a human point of view. To humans, they are prissy and sissy, but in Tolkiens world, they are the most wonderful beings in middle earth.

I believe that Elves deserve a lot more credit than they are getting. Gee, I am sooooo happy that somebody said something. The way the Elves, especially Legolas have been persecuted is wrong. Twisted and wrong. Sooo all things said, Legolas and the Elven species have been persecuted, but that ends now. Thank God. Thank you Imladris!
