@tomwanderer They met before the fading of the elves, before it was a given that the Noldor could return to Valinor, and she’s Sindar — he didn’t develop a sealonging until after he married her.
@moonlarking I think Arondir was supposed to be Galadriel’s brother, the one who fell for & faded for a human, and the main reason why Finrod and Galadriel cared about humans. Her caring about Halbrand made sense in that context. Guess they didn’t get copyright.
@oceanpurr One of the reasons that is pretty well documented is that inactive & overweight women do have pelvic floor dysfunction which makes them tighter
If you’ve seen a good real life female sword fighter (who fights with traditionally weighted medieval swords) she almost always looks more like the female lead characters of RoP than the fetishised skinny child stereotypes you see in the movies.
