I'm not completely sure, but I'll email her to be sure. Anyway, here's something you all might not know but the concept of geisha came from the hetaerae, who were courtseans well educated in the arts, philosophy, etc in ancient Greece. I've read about them in my classical mythology book.

And yes, that does explain the hanky panky rule. I wonder if it has ever happened and what Enma would do if it did, or already has. _________________ Admin and Editor for Yami Forums ~Coco Melancholy or ~Coco

It is very stressful on both parties. To see your partner get old while the other stays young. To watch you partner die, these can all play a factor in that rule. But my major belief is to not have childern. It just seems more logical I guess. _________________ The world is only as great as your imagination.

It is very stressful on both parties. To see your partner get old while the other stays young. To watch you partner die, these can all play a facter in that rule. But my major belief is to not have childern. It just seems more logical I guess. That had been my first thought actually, I hadn't considered the procreation bit until is what brought up here. Saying that, I agree with you, how much does the ministry really care the shimigami's emotional angst, (dude emotional angst is the reason why they're all there), the only way I can imagine the ministry caring about the emotional implications is if it interferred with the job. Though altogether childbirth is a very practical thing for Enma and the rest of the world of the dead to take into consideration. _________________ Admin and Editor for Yami Forums ~Coco Melancholy or ~Coco

Emotional distress is just the beginning of what would happen if a shinigami where to procreate with a human. What about the child it self? It would have genes from both parents and where could that possibly lead too. _________________ The world is only as great as your imagination.

I wish JiHye was here, she'd point them out to me, >.< boi would she point them out to me. Quote: To breed a hybrid would be chaos in the making, it's simple as that. Emotional distress is just the beginning of what would happen if a shinigami where to procreate with a human. What about the child it self? It would have genes from both parents and where could that possibly lead too. An identity crisis? To be honest, I mean, what DNA does a Shimigami have?? I imagine that if the Shimigami is human, than he's genes are human too. Dead or not. So wouldn't the baby simply turn out human anyway. Most of the Shimigami learn their powers, they're not born with them. And do Shimigami genes even count, I didn't Tsuzuki or Hisoka mentioned once that the blood that runs through them is cold blood. Would a baby survive such a combination? Or would it simply be still born? And does the way round count, for instance, if Wakaba was to find some human stud outside meifu, (sorry Terazuma), and got pregnant, would the result be the same if it were Terazuma, (sorry Wakaba, its a het thing, nothing personal) went outside and got a human female pregnant. And what about Shimigami breeding with eachother? I mean, you can't grow in this world so can you even be born? And Shikigami breeding with Shimigami, does that work? U_U okay I'm finished now..... _________________ Admin and Editor for Yami Forums ~Coco Melancholy or ~Coco

Again Tsuzuki is not fully human. It leads me to believe that perhaps he is the one that can possibly breed hybrids and the one ' they '  most worry about. _________________ The world is only as great as your imagination.
