This discussion is more likely to be constructive if people stick to expressing their own views and preferences, and recognise that they are their own views and preferences rather speaking for others or making what look like quite strong and emotive claims as though they are objectively true. Given the huge variety of opinions and tastes, and that many players and forum members clearly don't see the romances in the game as, eg, "weird fetish porn" that's inevitably and unnecessarily going to be controversial, and potentially derail this thread.
