:) I never bought the idea that they were celibate to begin with. Aang's too much of a natural born Flirt to have been raised by prudes. He never had a conflict with love or marriage. In fact, it was the concept of detachment that was was baffling and offensive to him.

But that's the point. They're not celibate. They just want to make you think they're celibate.

Yeah, a real ladykiller, that Aang. "If it was a choice between kissing you and dying.... What? I'm saying I would rather kiss you than die. That's a compliment!"

He also quite fails with Females in the 'Fortuneteller' episode. So NO, he's not Casanova, just a simple monk.

Furthermore, this is a settled matter. It's midichlorians.

Nah, he just gets nervous with Katara because.. she's.. Katara. Put him in front of a group of average girls and the boy needs restraining orders.

To prove Trailerman's point:

Exhibit A: the girls on Kiyoshi Island
Exhibit B: Meng
Exhibit c: The fire nation girls, especially On Ji.

Yeah, I don't think Aang has a problem with the majority of girls his age at least lol. But these girls are nowhere in the same league of Katara XD. He had to actually WORK for her attention, i mean, when she wasn't fawning over him lol

But On topic...I think the most logical explanation to the question would be that babies simply show those characteristics when they do something out of the ordinary. I think a parent's gonna notice if their baby sneezes out fire or moves the ground when they crawl lol... :mrgreen:

i highly doubt there is a set time for when the next avatar is born. my theory is that they must be chosen. if a baby is born about a week later, and he/she wouldn't make a good avatar, then he/she doesnt become one. i think that the cycle could wait for years until they find the person who will make the correct decision for the entire world, despite others teachings, there culture, etc. (aka Aang)
is there a topic about this already? if not, i may start one.

I love how you just pop in every time Kataang is brought up and shove all the facts in our face to reinforce it's canonity. It's great. :lol: :mrgreen: (No sarcasm intended)
