”just think that practicing restraint may prevent this thread from being closed down”

Well... I think that if this happens, then I just have ended up in the wrong forum. I mean, when I signed to this site, I noticed no disclaimer: ”this site onbly for those humanists who care nought and are not involved in discussions they start, we desire only discussion for which none of the participants give a **** ” The last few posts, we may have gotten bit too involved and discussion has drifted bit more from sexist stereotypes in fantasy to things like prostitution... but now let us get back to the point.

What comes to beating a dead horse, I merely stated thet a pretty woman attraction neccesiates not. Therefore there was more between Aragorn and Arwen then that she was ”pretty”.

”Pretty” is rather meaningless anyway. What is pretty? If one ”is”, ”pretty”... why should I care?
