    Embracing is just another cute feature that perfect world offers...for straight people. I find it rather offensive that people of two different species can embrace but not female/female or male/male? You would think in a perfect world people should be free to be who they are and like who they like... Maybe perfect world isn't so perfect after all...

    I suspect it is because of the origins of the game but I would tend to agree that it should go both ways. Also, for LoL's I think it would be funny if I could pick up a Barb instead of him picking me up if I choose the Embrace. That would just look funny.

    Since girls in this game are paper-thin, why don't we just add a "hand-holding" type mechanic?

    Such as, female initiates embrace with male or female -> handholding(AND RIDING ON MOUNTS.)

    Male initiates embrace with female-pick up. With another male-> handholding.(And riding mounts.)

    That's the only way it wouldn't look ludicrous and still be what the OP wants.

    Also, the second reply to this thread made me laugh so hard.

    You owned the entire topic.

    It's a good idea to be able to give rides on your mount, if you have one, to everybody. But a male embracing a male and vise versa? Just no.

    Bragging about **** rights in a video game is a bit... hmm, cheekily, don't you think? Personally I have nothing against homosexual people, if they don't go too far.

    I'm all for taking the kissing part out completely and just making it where anyone can carry anyone(would also serve to take some of the awkwardness out of recharging chi)....yeah it might look a bit odd for a skinny little 100lb veno to be seen carrying around a 300lb barb...... but maybe gravity works a bit differently in a perfect world??? Afterall they were very carefull to not call this place "earth", manta rays and swords dont fly either.... but they do here.

    I find making out in public(no matter straight or homo) equally as disgusting.... get a friggen room.

    I think PDI fits in perfectly in PWI. XD

    I really have no opinion, just wanted to throw in my little play on words. Though it would be hot to see some girls carrying each other and kissing. ;)

    So, how do you report offensive people?
    It's kinda ironic how everyone is against racism and sexism, but at the same time show such blatant hatred for people with different preferences. How about a little tolerance people?

    this has nothing to do with my tolerance of ****, there just isn't any in a perfect world.

    When a very good-looking girl (or guy), that you know wants to make out with you, and it just happens to be in a public place, let me know if you turn them down, so I can laugh at you.

    IN REGARDS of the thread, It's wrong for a guy to embrace a guy, or a girl embracing a girl. In regards to carrying, I don't carry my buddies around, and no girls I know carry their girlfriends from place to place. In a "perfect world" awkwardness does not exist, and those two factors are awkward.

    Oh and anyone who wishes they could carry their home-boys around, they have places for people like you.

    No offense to anyone, maybe I'm "simple-minded", but I would find the same-sex carrying each other more awkward than what it is now, which is making-out in public ect.

    Maybe I'm just homophobic.

    I'm not a teenager, I don't have to worry about "fronting with my dope image" or whatever it is you kids say... so laugh all ya want..... and while I have to be honest and must say that I've never pushed a girl away for getting "friendly" with me in publc, however I must go further on to say that there have been several times i've wanted to push a girl off me and was really just "along for the ride"

    Public displays are just that... for the benefit of the "public", its all a show intended to temporarily sate the insecurities of a jealous or possesive lover, if you are unable to convince your GF/BF or whatever that you love them within your own privacy and have to resort to such public displays in order to convince everyone else.... then it is you who should be laughed at.

    Affection is affection, in public or not.

    I'm not a "dope teenager" for one.

    However, affection has been around since the dawn of man, if people can't do it where they want, what do we have? You see holding hands, hugging, kissing, and other affectionate acts on a daily basis, multiple times a day.

    IN contrast to the thread, if you see a man and woman (girl and boy, w/e) kissing, hugging, holding hands, ect. Most think "awe cute, cute couple, ect." If you're irked by this, maybe you need a reality check.

    HOWEVER, I eat my own words when I see two parties of the same gender kissing, or showing intimate affection for, but hey, I'm messed up in my own ways as well.

    It's obvious they want the guys to have the tough time getting places, you can't just go up to some random girl and ask for help carrying you to heaven's tear since there is no option for that, where as playing as a girl, you can use that to your advantage, wether your a guy or girl irl and go up to someone, ask them to carry you up and be able to get there no problem. Talking about this reminds me of the experience differance reward for the Valentine's quest, all the guys were so hated, lol.

    Oh no i can't travel around what I'm gonna do? help! help!
    Am I the only one who finds that embarrassing for a guy to be that wuss?

    C'mon you're only couple of levels away from flight, finish your other quests and fly! But then again I haven't seen the life on your side of the world- maybe cab drivers carry their passengers on their hands upstairs to their apartment doors as well.

    Anyway i understand what you're trying to do- wuss men are people too and if that's the only way they can play- by all means make it available for them to be carried!

    You know the only ones crying about how embrace is now are the guys pretending to be girls who wanna carry their "girl" friend in game around, lame -.-"

    BTW, notice theres never any lesbians on PW? WHY you ask? i tell you xD
    Most the girls are guys, shush idc thats what im saying, and if the guy wants ppl to think they are a girl, he wont say hes a ****, because then you KNOW hes not a girl lol ^^

    BUT if they say they are bi, you think, oh well since he likes guys too.. hes not a guy playing as a girl cause that'd make him ****... whcih guys dont wanna be on here.. YES i put lotta thoguht into this.. WHY you ask? cause im very bored and reading the forums and complaining to ppl who i dont care what say makes me feel better xD

    There's PDA, and then there's "Get a friggen' room already". It's not about it being offensive, it's about it getting to a point of being inappropriate.


    Public displays of affection don't need to make everyone around them uncomfortable with their actions.

    This is true. Those of us who are female and want to carry around our female friends and/or lovers (depending on sexual orientation) simply dislike the fact that we cannot do so, but have already accepted that it can't be changed and wouldn't be changed if it could.

    It is fun to talk about reasons why it would be nice to have around, though. b:chuckle

    I see what you mean, I'm new here, and think it kind of sucks, even though I'm straight. I guess the people who created it are trying not to offend anyone, but in the process end up offending people.

    Dumb thread.

    Listen, there are other games for people who are specifically looking for a hug, an embrace, to carry, or otherwise be intimate with another player. Go play those when you get the urge or desire for intimacy or sensual activities.

    You horndogs.

    ROFL... boy this is straight to the point. And I tend to agree. Be happy the game isn't made in Iran. They would stone you, or hang you to death for such same sex embracing. lol

    I don't know what I find more disturbing. The fact that a thread was made on this subject again or that some players haven't been banned/had their posts edited yet. I.e., Forp and Devlinne to name a couple.
