*hand shaking* i could not bring myself to vote. lots of ppl voted for mustang/ed, but enticing as it may seem, it's just too stupid and not gonna happen, but that's okay. i respect ur opinions. yes indeed lol...

Toby: Didn't you say in a thread you were a perv'? XD Or maybe that was a joke, certainly...I think it was in the yaoi one...

Galux: I never would have thought people would draw/write Bradley/Mustang. I mean, yeah, Bradley is...huh...attractive for his age (60, I think) but still...This pairing screams bondage XD I would have never thought bondage to be common for Havoc/Mustang though! They get along very well! ^^; Who is the one being...huh...ukefied the most?

[OT]So, I finally decided I'll start the drabbles (EnWin, it is! XD) but I'll write a CMO-inspired smutty fic first (Okay, can't do without the smut, that's all!) so maybe I'll PM you, Galux, if you're okay with that.[/OT]

I'm a healthy teenager. I can't not be a perv. That still dosen't mean I can or want to be a porn afficionado. (Even if it's not 'porn' I generally avoid the topic of sex altogether in my writing simply for the fact that my lack of experience in that area makes it akward to write about. I know that 90% of everything I write about is something I've never experienced... I dunno. I'm still gonna keep that comfort zone. Although it's really kind of hard, since there are a lot of bunnies I've had for continuing stories where I'd really like to develop that aspect of some of the characters I'm writing for. Winry and Rose in particular, mostly just because considering their circumstances, that part of their relationship would be really complex, delicate and emotionally charged. I just don't want to get it wrong.)

I know a few sites that publish Bradley/Mustang smut... not really my thing, but if you want I'll have a look for you.

Yeah, it's relatively common, surprisingly XD Mostly Roy is uke, but I've seen a few uke!Havoc pics too.

Yeah, no worries! PM away! Or email me at teruchan@gmail.com; I'm fine with either.

It's so funny! No one likes Roy/Al couples!
hehehe

This is so wrong but, I voted for Ed/Al!
O.o
that is so wrong...

Whoa! Finally a topic for yaoi and yuri fans (yaoi for me, thanks!).

I believe it's pretty obvious which pairing I prefer. RoyxEd. Hands down. But they're not only the best homosexual couple, but the best FMA (and yaoi) couple EVER. I mean, the're so alike they compliment each other:

From the swollen egos, to the arrogant attitudes. The striving need to be better and the only reason to become better is to help others. The short tempers (granted, Roy's temper isn't nearly as short as Ed's is, it's still considerably short). The equally tragic pasts, plus the added bonus of them both having killed at a young age (Ed, when he was 12 and Roy when he was 19).

Although I prefer RoyxEd I do like other pairings, like...

Roy/Hughes - Yay! Roy as the uke! I believe they're more than just close friends. Wohoo.
Roy/Havoc - Roy, the uke again. And Roy steals Havoc's women for a reason, I know the reason; he wants Jean to himself! Smexyness.
Ed/Havoc - Don't ask.
Greed/Kimblee - Hot, hot and hot.

I actually believe I have turned somehow hetrophobic, cause I don't enjoy hetro couplings anymore. Although I'm straight myself. Lol. Go yaoi!

Other boys can easily "complete" Ed also. There's not only the all similarities thing, there's "opposite attracts" also, which is, in my opinion, way more interesting.

Rose and Lyra/Dante had some possibilty.Shame Lyras all "icky"now.She was kinda cute when she was human.

I can't see many lesbian couples sadly(what?I'm a perv,sue me)
although Sloth and Lust would be cool.Nothing says classy but sexy like those two.

There are a few gay couple I could see.I'm strait but I'm comftable enough with my sexuality to entertain these kind of hypertheticals.
Roy and Huges,Roy and Havoc and maybe AL and Ed (although the incest part is concerning to many degrees)

I can't see Ed and Roy or Wrath and Envy.The age diffrence just makes ting creepy and illegal.Wrath's about 11 and Envy is 400.Just wrong.

I couldn't vote because the thought of any of them as a gay cupel just sickens me and another thing how can you even think of putting down EdxAl they're brothers! and you do not love your family that way!

P.S. I have no problen with gay people. I read shonenai. But in this context it's just wong........................... Ah, now you have me picturing it! *bangs head on desk* No! Get out, get out, no, no, no..........think abut something els! I hope you'r happy!

How stereotypical.

I would like to say something that I mentioned before in a seemingly unrelated chat: Why are people posting their feelings about an ethical issue? It is quite fine with me for someone to be homophobic... hey, to each his own. However, when someone's homophobia because the basis for positing ethical principles, I begin to have problems.

When ethics are at state, we must be logical. Beyond the universal scapegoat of: I don't like X, therefore no one should do X, there exists no arguments against homosexuality.

I'm sorry if I seem cranky on this issue, but if you have new information, by all means post it. If homosexuality causes one's limbs to fall of, by George, let's stop the practice immidiately! But until you can come up with a similar causal relationship, why not keep your opinions inside? I don't remember ever trashing someone for having a mullet, even though they are quite possibly the worst style of haircuts ever (next to flock of seagulls).

Again, I appologize for turning this venue into: a) a venue for me to complain, and A chat about ethics.

Ars longa vita brevis- "Life is short but art is lasting" - Seneca

Hyleaus

I picked other.


The only homosexual pairings I approve of are AlphonsexFletcher and RizaxWinry. I don't wanna read fanfics or see pictures, but their friendships are too adorable.

I voted Sloth/Lust.

They're the only pair that didn't make me go "EEEEWWW!! Hell No!"

Not that I'm homophobic or something like that, but when I imagined EdxRoy in my head, it really grossed me out.

Lust/Sloth would be classy.
Rose/Winry just so Ed can be happy.

I'm not gonna try and findpics or fanfic but if any happens across my parth I won't object.

Perv and proud.

With all the yaoi here, it's almost a relief to see a yuri fan

I like to think I'm mature enough to excpte that Male/Female cartoons can have same sex relationships.

The problem with FMA Yaoi is that Ed is far to young for the others,unless he goes for Al(Creepy and Illegal),Fletcher(Just wrong) or Russle(which I think would be awkward).
Roy/Hughes is probably one of the few relations that has no real creepyness about it.

I just prefer Yuri.It's more asteticly pleasing.

Popo- You forgot Ling for Ed. (Though I prefer them as friends.)

Most people around here probably know I'm a big nut for shoujo ai, usually involving Winry. It just suits her. (Though really, with not too much effort, Winry can work with pretty much everyone.) With the masses, I luff Shez/Win, and more recently, I'm positively enamored with Winry/Rose. Been doing a lot of works on it. (It's so underrated. If they were a yaoi couple, people'd be all over them.)

I can accept it, I just rarely like it. Unless it has some hardcore evidence.

Now you've got my attention
Any chance of seeing said work?

My favourite pairing is definitely Roy/Ed



I agree, but I just like Roy and Ed as a couple. Can't really explain why, it's just kinda cute ^.^. I think Ed/Russell could be a nice pairing too. Hughes shouldn't be with anyone else than his wife. He's just a real family man. At least that's how I think about him.

Hum, no offence, but I don't think this is the PWP hardcore smut you're looking for, sorry.

Ah yes, and Envy (who is actually 18 years old, so don't bring me the 400-years-old argument) for Ed also, plz. And I don't like RoyEd, but I'm tired of the all 'Ed is way too young' over-used argument, knowing that I have friends who've got boyfriends close to thirties and, weirdly, I don't feel like telling them what they're doing is wrong. They are happy and old enough to decide for themselves. And, from what I know, Winry is also too young for Riza.

Yeah, those double standards are funny. It's bad if it's gay, but it's just fine if it's with lesbians or straight people, coz that's just normal.

*is pretty late coming in but has to put in $.02* Only bearly Hoenhime's first son was only 18, and homonculi don't age... >.> besides, Envy could be what ever age he wanted to be.

I voted for EnvyXEd but then again I like the rough relationships XD

Well, I don't particularly like yaoi pairings very much, but...I like Falman/Fuery

I was kidding you know,hence the smily.



I don't thik anyone said Win/Riza.Certainly I wouldn't like it.No double standards here.
Rose/Win is better and I did find a strange (very strange) Maria/Riza fanfic but adult/teen relations just feel creepy.

Kidding? The smily said more 'smut for the perv I am'...and perv I am also, but I don't blame ya! Winry/Roze is an interesting pairing, not that I support it with all my heart, even though I recently got into another yuri pairing that I support like Woah.

It was just to inform you.


Duh, Winry/Riza has like 40 votes (which quite surprises me)! And I know people - other FMA fans - who like these sort of pairings (teen/adult) and who hate RoyEd 'cause it's man/man and "pedophilia", and I personally think they are stupid brats, since they are contradicting themselves. You think adult/teen relationships are creepy? Well, good, that's your opinion. However, I don't understand why you feel like it. I find way more disturbing a 20-years-old woman hooking up with a 80-years-old man just for his money (hey, I'm not saying they're all like that. As incredible as it seems, some are truly in love, ya know) than an adult and a teen who are both in love with each other...Just to say that the pedophilia argument for Ed/Roy is over-used just like the palm tree joke and does not stand up, at least, not for me. Ed is sixteen and, despite his immature way of acting and thinking at times, can decide for himself. Same for Winry. Of course, kids (and I mean real kids)/adults and rape are different things...

My fault,I didn't and haven't been looking at the poll.

It's not that I find teen/adult relation crepy in OMGWTF way,I'm just mot being clear.I find early teen/mid age adult wrong.20 something with 80+ is just as bad.
Sorry that I'm being inconsitant here but *shrugs*.
I'll be quiet now.
*Sits in cornner trying to figure out his stance on things*

Buh?





The whole teenage debate has such a broad gray area that it's really hard to even start pinpointing where it stands on a moral scale. I think most people in our general culture have difficulty with the thought, because of the fact that in recent times, teenagers are now regarded to still be children. This is applicable to some of them, particularly in our culture where we encourage that period of immaturity, but for the majority of the existence of society, as well as in other cultures, there really isn't much of a true period of "adolescence", and children become adults at much younger times.

So there is more of a middle ground where it should be judged on an individual basis. A teenybopper in America who tries to dress like a Bratz doll to make herself feel mature and still dosen't have any life experience outside of what she knows from TV, is not a good candidate for any relationship, in my opinion, especially one with an older individual. A fifteen year old pioneer woman in the mid 1800's is probably likely to marry an older man, and have few problems with it. In ancient Egypt, 13 years was a common age for girls to marry, because in their culture, they became adults much earlier, and most teenagers made up a large majority of their workforce and population of common citizens. It dosen't work the same way nowadays, because with our system, there is a very technical divide, where teenagers are forced to keep that era of awkward existence between identities. They are not yet functioning adults, and thus aren't given respect or acknowledgement as such, and therefore, it is easy to see why many would be bothered by a teenager who felt ready to be one, since we try to raise them to develop on a slow same-rate scale. And with this system, it would be very hard to find a teenager who is genuinely mature, and who by making a decision to have any relationship, particularly with an older individual, still retains that mature judgement.

Citing that FMA has a lot of similarities to our modern culture, it's easy to place the same values to our interpretation of relationships in that world, but do remember that it is still the early 1900's, and there is clearly much less of that divide between youth and adulthood than there is today. Edward is an indivudual responsible for himself and his brother, a soldier, and a scientist with genius to match most older individuals surrounding him. By most standards, he is an adult. And it is a very significant point of character development that he begins to truly think as one, rather than simply believe he is by going through the motions. Depending on where we are in the series is pretty crucial on whether or not he still retains his childlike emotional state. In some ways, I can see Alphonse as being a naturally more wise and mature person than Edward, and he seems to have more of an interest in seeking guidance. That coupled with the fact that he seems to have had crushes on older women, it's possible that the person he ends up with would probably be older than he. (Even if it's just "Winry" type older.)
Winry herself is a self sufficient woman with a career, a steady outlook on life, and an ability to take care of herself. In that way, it's easy to see her as an adult, and it wouldn't bother me in the least to see her seek out a relationship with an older person. (Thinking... Havoc-ish, maybe?) She's proven that she can handle a lot on her own, and that she is smart enough to make that judgement for herself.

And... um... lightbulb.

Popo=PWNED

[Big,bold,self loathing swear words]Ok,ok,I regret that choice.I was young and wild.If I could change my choice I would.Sloth/Lust would have won if I had thought it out more.I'm a Hypocrit but I admit it and regret it.Although I could argue it was Movie Winry[18 years old] which wouldn't have been as Bad.movie Ed and Roy would be Ok then.

Rose/Win/Noah/Schezka(any combo not foursome) is ok.Riza/Lust/Sloth/Maria combos are good but don't mix them.

Here's mine: Greed X ANYONE
Hehehe, I say this because Greed just looks so........so......... WEIRD! o_0 It looks like he's always wearing spandex........ You know what I mean

ENVY X ED!! Those two are good together!!

Yeah,despite the mutual hatered,casual murder and theoretical incest.

Isn't it KAWAII DESU NE CHU SUSHI?!!!!~~~~~~!

Ed and Envy all the way! =^-^=

:gigglesnort: Popo, don't you know the expression 'there's a fine line between hate and love'? 'Cause it doesn't look like it at all. Just let me tell you some excellent EnvyXEd authors used this mutual hatred to their advantage and did an excellent job, so I don't think your post stands much, even with the all "murder" and "incest" argument.

But if you want to argue about that, I'll be more than happy to argue that Win/Roze or Lust/Sloth, etc is stupid and will never happen.

Ed X Envy would make for really awesome fanfic, no doubt about it. I can see where you people are coming from on that one.
* sings: I hate you, but I love you, I can't stop thinking of you.
And I think it's more fun discussing than SlothxLust, who I voted for btw.



True, then again, neither will EdxEnvy.

I was being sarcastic, dear. You failed in the trap. I wouldn't do that...Though, I maybe would, to show how much it's annoying sometimes when people pull out arguments (that are sometimes not even good) like that to say "OMG! It'll neva happen!".

Ed & Roy <not hard to see, right? > I love them together. They are so hot!!!

u love roy, but i love royxed almost as much...

Fine!Be like that but I won't help them when we visit and Ed's covred in brusies from "falling down stairs"[/overly dramatic](I don't mind the hate but the theroretical incest creeps me teh hell out o_O;)



*Falls to knees*NO!It's not true.They will be together,they must,it's so possible.Winry does love Rose! *Collapses in tears mummbling something about Sloth and Lust.Men in white coats drag Popo out of the room*

Shez/Win is one that seems to be popular (I'm looking at the "Right partner for Shezka poll" when I type this)

Anyway! BDSM is hot XD


*pats back* You've got to accept the harsh reality~ *waves hand as Popo is dragged away*

God, must stop spamming! XD I'm feeling like I'm in PH again~


Well, certainly because Shez didn't have much interactions with other characters besides Winry and they're cute together.

Because Winry and Shezka are already married.

That's not speculation; that's a fact. Take it to the bank!

Ed and Roy without a dout ....i have the top five homosexual anime couples

1. Riku and Sora from Kingdom Hearts
2. Ed and Roy from FMA
3. Mugen and Jin from Samurai Champloo
4. Inuyasha and Miroku from Inuyasha
5. Joey and Kiba from Yi-Gi-Oh

Envy and Ed!!!

Owh well, with Ed gone, Winry doesn't have much of a choice left..



Totally OT: Joey and Seto?! Even with my wild imagination, there's just now way!

Darn, you guys made good arguments and I am still not convinced to love another pairing other than Ed x Al. XD *gets shot*

Must be because I loved Yami x Yuugi when I was a Yugioh! fan. *gets shot again*

tee he he. XD

LOL
Well I guess there's nothing like a good scizophrenic relationship. Personally, back in my Yugioh days, I prefered Yugi x Joey

If anything, I liked Yuugi/Anzu, or anything with Ryou in it.


Although for very shallow reasons, Malik/YamiMalik, and Malik/Bakura make me squeal.

*nudges* wat kinda shallow reasons? 8D *curious*

I like Roy and Ed, but I voted for other. Because Roy would be like raping Ed (I read it in a dounjshi...however you spell it) But whatever...I like Roy X Havoc!
