Anyone else think elves are sexy? Every time I see/hear “elf” around the holidays, my mind goes to sexy elf maidens with pointy ears, alabaster skin, and long, lean bodies adorned with silk and swords.
Anyone else? Do we have any cosplay providers?

Yep! :twothumbs: I think it has to do with the lore around elves, specifically Tolkien lore no less. I'm a huge Tolkien fan as it turns out :wink:
Tolkien saw all elves (the various races) as chosen, favored, the most beautiful of all Eru's creations. Eru is the equivalent of the "Christian God" in Middle Earth lore.
If you're a Tolkien academic you've undoubtedly read about it through the massive creation myths of Arda (the world of Middle Earth) in The Silmarillion or The Histories of Middle Earth and the Book of Lost Tales anthologies. Tolkien himself identified in an allegorical sense with hobbits but the creation myths make it very obvious that all elves were the most beautiful and favored of Eru's children.
I think those are the major reasons they appear so sexy in most settings: books, models, toys, video games, movies... :cheers: :thumb:
Hell, I just think it’d be sexier than Aphrodite to bang a pointed ear wrench. Elf, daemon, Vulcan it doesn’t matter... just no pink hair...
