i've been wondering...is sex forbidden in the jedi order?
not love/marriage/attachment etc....but just sex.
what throws me off is how kenobi obviously likes to drink.
a drink can certainly be considered a worldly pleasure a.k.a.
getting a buzz. even when persuing an assassin he finds time
to shoot one down. my point? by any logic alcohol is a path
to the darkside. not only that but it dulls the senses.
"but he wasnt ordering a REAL drink, just some blue milk...or something"
bullshit. he bought a shot of booze. why? because he felt like it.
so what do you think? in a scenario of mutual consent with no
attachment, are the jedi allowed to get it on?
well ok buzzkill I think they could have sex if they wanted, but i think mant dont stray from the code, sucks, but what you gona do.................when the HULKSTER and all his HULKAMANIACS run wild on you....?

okay, letīs get serious.
Probably sex is forbidden because the posibilities of creating attachments because of it are to many.
I donīt mean just kids and a family, which are attachments but suppouse that the jedi had sex regulary with the same partner... that could lead to an emotional attachment. Attachment means being depandant of the other (as the other is dependant of us) and that could weaken the Jediīs resolve making him vulnerable to fall to other temptations (Dark Side, you name it).
So sex must be forbidden.... in the Jediīs case

but that bridges my thinking about kenobi taking a drink.
really he's doing a drug when youre realistic about it, so
he is flirting with a dependancy, right?
so he's reckless? i dont think so.
in fact i think its stressed that post ep-1 kenobi is
not only one of the best jedi, but also the equivalent of
a straight and narrow eagle scout type.
so there must be a certain level of allowance imho.
Because it's all the same...is he breaking the Jedi code? Obviously he's allowed a drink, so why not sex as long as there is no attachment?
This raises a new theory, after Order 66, the few Jedi who survived had to of hooked up with either each other or locals (depending on species, etc) just in case they need to provide the galaxy with new beings who are strong in the Force.
