[QUOTE="Angcuru, post: 1607535, member: 10948"] C'mon, guys! You aren't doing much to support us human men! Sure them elven chicks are awesome, but why would they want one of us? The only two non-elven guys who ever got with elven maidens were Beren and Aragorn, and they weren't even human!! (See Numenorian, some more than others) And heck! Beren had to kill a dragon, get his hand bitten off, and steal a Rare-as-hell shiny gem from Sauron's Boss just so she'd even [i]look[/i] him! [utilitarian philosophy] And what about Aragorn? Are we sure that the whole 'set to inherit dominion over all of mankind' thing (more or less) didn't have anything to do with her attraction to him? What were her options? Option A - Go overseas with the rest of people who you see EVERY DAMNED DAY who have developed incredibly boring personalities due to their living FOREVER, and as such she can only tolerate their presence, rather than liking anybody. Why else do you think she's lived for thousands of years without getting hitched? Option B - Hook up with a really rugged, tough yet sensitive, loving, gorgeous, and [i]set to rule the world once daddy leaves[/i] semi-mortal man who can take out practically anything, has connections with the Dwarves (can you say DIAMONDS?), has connections with Hobbits (can you say [size=1]pipe[/size]WEED?), and has more spunk than any skinny elf she'll ever meet back at the treehouse? If she goes with him, she gets to be the Queen, have everything she'll ever need, and once her hubby kicks it, she can go turn off her immortality switch and be with her financial (& sexual?) powerhouse for ever and ever and ever.... [/utilitarian philosophy] What can the average human give her? Umm....body hair?...collecting his life insurance?...seeing what arthritis looks like?...thingies? C'mon men! We know [i]we[/i] want [i]them[/i]! Why would [i]they[/i] want [i]us[/i]? [/QUOTE]
