Anyone else afraid that OSC may wander into this thread and officially refuse to ever write anything ever again, just out of a general sense of horror?
Of course, it wouldn't be long before he'd be sneaking off and writing erotica about the gelatinous mass, but he probably wouldn't let any of us read it.

I find it highly peculiar that so many people are selecting ender. Doesn't anyone think that the drowning quantity of guilt that he felt for annhiliating an entire species would sort of mute his libedo?
That's on top of someone who has an asexual personality (as characterized by complete neglect to mention any sort of attraction to girls in EG, as well as his continued solitude in the jane books), who then, in the twilight of his life joins an order of celebates.
Lets face it, ender doesn't seem like one who's terribly concerned about physical relationships.
But as it was mentioned before, i haven't ever really concidered any of OSC's characters in terms of how romantically attractive they might be to me.
I'm surprised noone has mentioned either Wang Mu, or Petra. Push coming to shove, i'd probably go for Wang Mu.

Incidentally this thread made me suddenly realize that I have read Octavia Butler. The author's name didn't mean anything to me, but the word "ooloi" triggered something in my brain and I went onto amazon and looked. I know I've read all three in the series though I barely remember when.

Nobody has even mentioned Ansett here. With the whole shutting-the-brain off thing past him, he should be pretty high on the list. He was willing to "take one for the other team" just because the other guy thought it was a good idea. Of course, the other guy wasn't too picky. I keep meaning to submit the (correct) quote "I'm 60% into women, 36% into men, and 4% into sheep, but I'm 100% into you, baby!" to the Quote Database but I figure people might get the wrong idea.

P.S. Has anyone ever tried to use that as a pickup line?

Thanks, twinky. I'd lean more toward Mama Squirrel, but that's just me (and better remain just me ).
That aside, there are many to choose from. I'd probably choose Patience for overall character and emotional bonding (though from a physical standpoint I'd prefer she be the Patience on the paperback rather than the hardback), but if we're talking strict physical lovemaking, then Queen Beauty when she still looked like Berry.
With all Lalo's talk of Tikas, I can't help but wonder about Diko, though.
and the more i, uh, think(?) about it, the more certain i am of my answer. well educated, sexy accent, likes to argue...i don't think there's anything unattractive in that package.

Papa Moose, I just read through this whole thread waiting for your comment to pop up. (About Patience, not Squirrel).
Patience was far and away the most erotic character for me in my OSC reading. Granted she was led on by thought control and such, but boy was she hot! Posts: 995 | Registered: May 2003

CT, AJ or ak, do you think that the GM would have an MPD? Or is that TMI? Probably best to keep it on the QT. Or the DL, whichever you prefer.

Holy Moly, I have to say Ivan on this one. I've been madly in love with him since the book came out. Drat the wedding ring. He's so sensitive and sweet...and providing that he's at least 6' tall, he'd do just fine for me!! Posts: 6415 | Registered: Jul 2000

If she lowered her standards to allow for any self-promotion at all, she'd blow the Ralphster out of the water. And I don't mean maybe.

The Maker business...that's downright attractive, but there don't seem to be any female Makers in the books, at least not so far as I've read. Posts: 1041 | Registered: Feb 2002
