    "Is it wrong to be attracted to Nala/Adult Kiara?"

    I was recently asked by someone this question, I answered "Not that i would think, just you would then be desireing something that you cant have because its not real"

    What are your views?

    Edit- should of put Adult Nala, but iv watched TLK2 too much.

    I don't see any problem with it personally...


    Why do you think there are so many Nalaholic style sites? hehe

    The tough part is not that you can't have them, but if you start comparing the people you meet to them...then it gets complicated!

    If you mean attracted emotionally, then I don't really see a problem, unless it starts consuming your thoughts.

    If you mean attracted physically, then I can't really say, it all depends on context. Being attracted to a cartoon character may just be a matter of that character representing the prototype of what you'd want in a real person, and thus I wouldn't see much of an issue (A prototype is the psychological representation of a concept). If that's the case, I wouldn't give it much thought, as long as it's not causing an issue in your life. If it gets to be a problem, I'd definately consider looking further into it and possibly finding some mechanism to try to shy away from it, as it may be unhealthy. Also, really in any context, I don't think it's a problem as long as it doesn't start getting in the way of other things.

    As for "Wrong", it's not my place to make a judgement call on that, so I won't. I will say, however, that I don't think it's a situation of "Right" or "Wrong".

    but yeah i dont think its a problem for a person to like a cartoon character, heck I thought Nala was pretty danged cute when I saw TLK oO..

    It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

    A quick apology to anybody I may have offended with the comments, as I stepped over the line without realizing it. Thanks to Xinithian for the warning.

    I'd have to give a long (Hmm.......) on this one. Hmm....... well this is a bit of a touchy-feely situation. First, having strong feelings on something that practically doesn't exist; I see no problem with it. Furthermore, having an infatuation with someone's created idea is alright, as long as it doesn't distraught rational thinking - but that's whomever's business if it were too. Ending, I really don't care.

    Well, being a female I'm not attracted to Nala in that way hehe... though I can see how she is attractive. The thing is with a character like Nala, and especially this scene here is that the animators purposly try to make her look sexy, afterall, what is the main male role in the movies supposed to have but a beautiful lady? Plus there's also the characteristics of her personality that one might be attracted to.

    So I wouldn't say it's wrong, though if you start obsessing over her looks or whatever, then I'd be concerned as to how healthy it was.. hehe.


    EDIT: Could a Scar's Lair mod please move this to Everything The Light Touches?
    That which you manifest is before you.

    Let's see... a lot of these types of characters are given define human traits, so there's your "character" attraction. Also humans are attracted to things they cannot have. Now, the physical attraction may be due to the fact that the concept may seem more conforming to a persons' liking, how ever that works - that is. Would characters be less liked if they had fewer human traits or does that really matter?

    Wellll, you don't see many people saying, like - "Wow, that lioness in Roog's ava is so totally hawt!!"

    So yes, I'd say human traits matter.

    A long time ago I used to have the same problem..at least, I was wondering whether it was alright to feel that way. In fact, that was the reason I joined Simbas Paws and then eventually Lea..because I was depressed.

    Having gone through that, and discussed it plenty of times, I think that is is 100% fine. As some people have mentioned, she is drawn to appeal to the human viewers watching it. That is why they gave them human facial expressions, etc. She is supposed to give off the impression of being attractive, and thus it is very natural to BE attracted to her. I mean, it is short of like being attracted to a human movie chracter, or even a super model. Obviously, it is HIGHLY unlikely that you will ever be with a super model, and also it is impossible to be with a human movie chracter, etc. They also do not exist, but they just happen to be played by a real person. There are TONS of people who are attracted to those characters, and are not criticized, and the same goes for cartoon chracters. In this instance, they just happen to look like lions/lionesses, but the personality and human traits are still there.

    Nala, Kiara or other?

    Simba, Kovu or others?

    In my opinion id have to say... *thinks about it for a few ours and watches both TLK 1 and 2*... i honest have no idea i like them both.
