Message: <blockquote data-quote="Ace" data-source="post: 2882443" data-attributes="member: 944">Here is my write up for Gender and Sex stuff IMC Sexuality and D&D varies a lot from game to game as we all know IMC for example -- its all PG and happens behind the screen ---Other games are rather more -- graphic. They make me queasy but to each his own and what adulyts want to do is thier business. Mea Culpa here but when I was very young (pre adult here) I ran Gor themed games with my buddies. We had fun though in retrospect I have to cringeMore recently I tried a PG13 Buffy/Angel game with a very mature group -- very metrosexual actually and it made them uncomfortable so it was back to PG for usWhen I play all of my charcters are almost always deliberatly neuter on issues of sex for the most part-- heterosexual (Bi in 1 case, a vampire natch) but neuter. This way I can deal with the parts that interest me without stress -- an occasional bit of roleplaying and the conflict stuff.I just don't care about my characters romantic life or  interparty marriages and the like. They happen in other people games and thats cool with me but not in my campaign -- at least with my expected groups of playersI hve yet to run a dynsatic game so families don't matter in context. This will change someday though Now as for the sexual preferences of non human races-- shoot I worked them out for my game-- they will probably never come up but they do interest me from a world building POVJust for kicks -- here they areHuman -- same as real world -- varies by culture. Brin are meterosexual, most cultures are anti homosexual (they are NOT regarded as good guys though) the Wiccany cultures are  tolerant. Vara and Galitri never engage in homeosexuality -- they just never have the trait (they aren't quite human) None of the non humans are used IMC but when I did use them here is what they were likeElves -- Mostly Bi -- with a few single sex prefered types -- usually Hetero with a fair amount of polyamory too. Sex =/= repoduction with these guysDwarves -- 60% Neuter (all the unamrried ones) the rest Hetero -- none are homosexualGnomes -- Same as DwarvesHalf Elves -- same as Humans often with a bit more of a wild streak. Half Elves are often more sexually adventurous than humans Halfling -- always hetero and monogamous like Swans. They bond for life. if a partner dies they rebond (sometimes) but thats itThis  keeps the amount of Sam/Frodo style slash or  Lidda the Slut stuff to a minimumHalf Orcs -- same as Human with a marked tendancy to violence. BDSM is not kinky to half orcs at all Half Ogre . Always Male and Always Neuter. These were from parings between a human male and an ogress -- females became Ogres , Males could be (1 time in 10) Half Ogres. Ogre males aren't interested in human females -- except as food. The exception might be a shapechanged Ogre Magi -- Children would be human with a High Strength, a wierd bloodline and levels in the Sorcerer classHalf Troll -- Some trolls IMC are intelligent and intereact with humans quite often. Humans and Trollwives sometimes Uhm interact They are close enough to people that offspring sometimes result. They look and act mostly human though they tend to be tall, have magic and sometimes horns or rough skin.my Catfolk are Hetero with a tendancy to promiscuity.As for "racial interactions "Gnomes and Halfling always pair with their own kindDwarves pair only with Dwarves except in my faerie tale world where they sometimes pair with human femalesElves often pair with humans -- at least for a while as they are bascially the same speciesCatfolk vary -- in one world the Anime styled ones often play about with humans. I doubt there is any offspring. In other games more animal like ones stick to thier own kinda couple of other bits because of magic and cheap ubiquous herbal birth control in most places the status of women is much higher than it is IRLThis leads to a lot more freedom in that area than IRLexceptions include nordanfel which treats all women as chattel (its a polemic counterpart to the queens domain which does that for men) and to an extent the scattered kingdoms which are semi fuedal and tend to see women as inferior</blockquote>
