But it does have Wookies and Nerfherders - those always sounded somewhat sexually suspect I thought.
Fancy a quick Wookie? Yeah alright...
Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
So, I was gardening one day, with a hoe. Then, a kid drove by on a moped. One sec, I said. Let me put on my shoe. When I was done, I said all right, let's go!

Basically this means you didn't play NWN, Jade Empire, or Mass Effect. All are great games and par for the course that is Bioware.
OT: Bioware has included same-sex stuff in both Jade Empire and Mass Effect. There is no reason they would not include it in Star Wars unless licensing prohibited it. It's very likely Bioware doesn't have the final say in this matter and is simply abiding the terms of their agreements.

Given the stranglehold on content that Lucas exerts over everything Star Wars I agree it is very unlikely Bioware has final say regarding the IP.
Seems they're going after use of the terms, etc. but it’s a shame. Shutting down abusive use of the terms is one thing, but you'd figure that a make believe Universe like Star Wars, which had a giant slug lusting after a chained woman, would be able to cope with gay relationships.
I guess everyone will have to stick with the tried and trusted double entendres instead.

A large portion of the Star Wars fanbase is comprised of giant slugs who lust after chained women, though.
It seams to me that there is no differentiation of that kind in the Star Wars universe, though there is no explicit example of that, cause we don't want to intrude on the private lives of others. Plus, out primitive one species minds and culture would be offended.
But think about it, there are a myriad of species, one stranger that the other in the SW universe, there must be interspecies relationships. What's a bit of homosexuality compared to that?

Remember a majority of people in this world are not gay so why shove it down their throats? |

The way you worded that post sure sounds like you have a big problem with the issue.

I have to admit i'm finding it hard to follow what you're saying, which isn't neccesarily your fault.
There is at least one specific example in Star Wars and thats in the Expanded Universe books, as i said in the OP, Boba Fetts best mate is gay and has a "husband" and adopted children - Aliit ori'shya tal'din.
So if its good enough for Boba, it's good enough for me! Oya!

Interesting. Do they use words like gay and homosexual in those books?
