100 Reasons why Dunedain (and men) prefer Elven Maidens

[Gez]

I think you mean Miranda Otto is much better looking than Liv Tyler.

Oh yes she is. And despite me prefering brunettes (and redheads and chestnut-haireds) to blondes.

But JRRT fanboys would say that as per the books, we pretty much have to take it on faith that Arwen is better looking than Eowyn.

Faramir would disagree, I think.

lol in the book, Eowyn got a case of the sour grapes after the wraith king broke her arm and decided that bein queen wasn't so great after all. Hmmm, being wife to a prince isn't a bad second choice.

(greatly paraphrasing)

 

[Angcuru]

Hell yes, Miranda Otto is way better looking than Liv Tyler. Pale as hell, but heck, no one's perfect. And hey, she's probably a better rider than Arwen.

Plus Eowyn wouldn't let her kids grow up to be panzies like Arwen would.

You people are going to give me a complex, since when did fat, lazy and scruffy looking become undesirable male traits? I'm going to have to reinvent myself, maybe after dinner and a nap.

NO FAT DUDES! Someone had to say it, for equality's sake.

Pale as hell, but heck, no one's perfect.

This is a positive thing.

12. If they don't have big parts, they can be rewritten to appear larger...

Shouldn't that be the reason women prefer elven men?

 

[Gez]

Nah, because there's one thing that elven men can't have big.

Too androgynous and neotenic to be as endowed as us rough, hairy guys.

 

[Angcuru]

Well, they may not have the size advantage, but they do have a long, long time to practice.

Forget "Why Dunedain prefer Elven Maidens", this thread should be titled "Why Angcuru prefers Elf Men."

Or perhaps I just like to argue both sides of the issue.
