Is Sex Forbidden?

Started by Cascador13 pages

well I think it's true to some degree that Obi-Wan was too attached to Anakin...I guess it became a conflict for both of them cause first they weren't friends at all...then suddenly comes this friendship which created a better bond but it also created attachment...and that created a problem for both of them, not as Jedi but as enemies more

so its agreeable that the subject of attachment cannot be approached with black and white thinking.

now back to the topic of jedi bumpin uglies

This is still an issue? Well if you want to think of sex and jedi on a basic level, the act of sex without love or attachment would be selfish, but as Anakin says, Jedi only think of others

PVS your avatar scares the hell outta me.

the amount of hits and posts proves that people think its an issue worth discussing. you already expressed your disaproval several times, as is your perogative.
now, if you still find it ridiculous then dont post. simple as that.

by george lucas? i hope so or i just have to ask: wtf?

Um actually to be fair here, According the the ROTS novel, the reason Kenobi left Anakin lying there without finishing him off is becuase of his attachment to him and because he saw Palps shuttle approaching. Also in the novel Dark Lord I think if I remember correctly, Kenobi curses the fact that he didnt finish Anakin off because he realises that if he had then Vader wouldnt exist and be hunting down the remaining Jedi. However it's been awhile since I read Dark Lord so I could be fuzzy on that.

As to the question at hand, I dont have an answer because I dont think it has any bearing on the events of the saga myself.

well if i remember correctly:

"A Jedi Shall Not Know Anger. Nor Hatred. Nor Love ...Nor Blue Balls."

well I think it's correct, sex without love, would just be wrong
it's a selfish deed...and the Jedi are selfness...they only care about others...so if they have sex because they need to please someone else maybe because of diplomatic reasons...I guess in those circumstances they would be allowed sex lol

how is the engaging in mutual pleasure a selfish deed?
dont let your own sense of sexual morality cloud your judgement.

Criminy, the Jedi are not Geishas!

well don't get me wrong...I had sex without being in love
but it still stays selfish from a certain point of view...But you do it more for your own pleasure than for her pleasure...you just morally accept it because she had pleasure too, so that it seems there is nothing wrong with it...among this world, I wouldn't call it moraly wrong...but among Jedi, it would be wrong.

as i said, do not allow your own outlook on sexual morality to cloud your judgement. you didnt call it morally wrong, but you also implied that it wasnt morally right. your own outlook and motives/lack of for casual sex are not objective.

so when you say things like:

you are only speaking for yourself.

well mostly that is the case anyway...and not only mine...I'm trying to see it from a general point of view not just my own point of view...but common...A Jedi who has sex just to please another woman....I don't think they would get such missions😉

why is impossible to imagine? is it somehow an imperitave to be in love in order to care whether or not she/he is pleased? really, im confused.

well you dont have to be in love to please another girl...But to purely please her with sex while not being in love...that's just over the line for a Jedi...that is just not their duty...that's my point, cause that could even lead to attachment lead to love

sex can lead to love...love is attachment...attachment is forbidden...

friendship/kinship can also easily lead to attachment.
yet it is allowed. point made right from the get go.

just my opinion is that sex is a lot more dangerous for attachment than friendship...Just my opinion...but its not only mine I'm sure....no I'm not gonna discuss this any further...

I know your opinion
you know mine
it's not always a bad thing to disagree.
Lets wait what other think and debate further on that, otherwise I fear we'll get in a situation like yesterday again...and I'd like to avoid that now...
