Rundown:

rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

i would be into this, anon (and imo alternate bonuses for intimate non-sexual relationships would be great i would love to see that kept)

obligatory non-trolling question springboarding off But What Are Your Thoughts About The Yaois here, if the effort's specifically to find a cure for a lack of fertility rather than a lack of sexuality then how are they going to see same-sex relations, or sex between infertile people or ones with different biology? definitely a case to be made for any sexual activity to be worth studying (and for the non-sexual intimacy to be useful as far as developing interest/courting/etc) but if you end up with a lot of couplings that have nothing to do with reproduction how is that gonna go if it's the focus of their research? pregnancy encouraged, y/n? (assuming yes with that premise)

i know it's still a vague idea BUT just stuff it made me wonder about. it might be harder to do but it'd also be really cool to see this with voluntary ic involvement in the project.

Maybe the aliens could also have problems with virility in general?

THAT is a good question, and the answer is: the aliens are interested in all forms of human interpersonal relationships. Curing their sterility is their main goal, but they reason that learning about attraction in general will help them out to that end (hence a different set of bonuses for non-sexual intimacy). After all, it doesn't matter how virile you are if you never want to have sex, and there are plenty of gay dudes out there willing to donate sperm/plenty of lesbian ladies interested in bearing children, so they'd consider things from that angle too. As for couplings that have nothing to do with reproduction, who knows, they're aliens. Maybe for them it does have something to do with reproduction.

And let's see...pregnancy not necessarily encouraged (they already know humanity is fertile, they need to know what humanity does different!) but not discouraged. Kids get raised elsewhere, though.

i've seen that anime
