We certainly don't need rules for how sex works in D&D since we are all adults are are quite aware of the mechanics involved.

No one "needs" them. Some people want them.

I don't need rules and "crit tables" for how much damage childbearing does... Hmmm, you're welcome to that idea, AV, if you've not already incorporated it somewhere in the book in the name of completion and/or as a platform for your sticking it to the big mean suits.

What if one of the other sources included in the poll have such things? Is that ok, just AV shouldn't do it? The focus of this is NOT on the BoEF. It is on all four of the mentioned sources, Nymphology, Naughty & Dice, the Guide to Unlawful Carnal Knowledge, and the Book of Erotic Fantasy.

Actually, I'd call it a shortcoming of 3e in general. As you pointed out, there are examples of piercings all over the place. It's not something I consider to be attractive, in the least, which may be one of my shortcomings. An ear, I can handle. A nose, perhaps. But I'd rather not look at things pierced between the neck and naval, so I won't be purchasing BoEF.

You keep on with piercings...is that the ONLY reason? Just seems odd to single that one out, in todays world...

As someone who isn't pierced and doesn't plan to be, I can understand that. But what about the other sources? This poll asked if any of FOUR sources were of use...not just the BoEF.

Just picked up my copy of Naughty and Dice. I promised my players a social-focus campaign (with some monster stopming for tension release) and they responded enthusiastically and made social characters. I wanted something to bookend with Dynasties and Demagouges that would help me out with rules and ideas, and of all the products I checked out N&D seemed to suit my goals the best.

Nymphology has comedic value, which gets a nod in my book. Plus, from what I have heard, there is at least one "clam" in the monster section, which also gets a nod as my campaign is set underwater. :D

So, you would have a use of some sort for those two sources? Then your vote of

Just like in the other poll, this one gets a "no" from me as well. I have no interest in any of those books or the related subject matter as it pertains to an RPG, and thus obviously have no use for them.

Hey, thanks for voting and thanks for recognizing that this poll was asking about more than just one book. I really appreciate that, no matter whether we agree on the books or not.

While I have no intention of purchasing or perusing through all four supplements in question, my comments are directed towards this genre of mature accessory as a whole. My vote stands. This genre of supplement is "best left to the imagination".
 

My opinion is just that this is not a situation that needs rules; except when used immaturely...

Pregnancy and birth, for example, I'm of the opinion no rules involved is better. If the DM wants a female NPC to become pregnant, she does. If a female PC's player want her to become pregnant, she does.

That's an area where the quality of the story dictates events, not the rules.
