Ah well then you got me there.

But people can't help if they want a "total hottie" like April

I guess it depends on the person. I don't think I'd ba able to have sex with someone I wasn't already in a relationship with. I guess that's what Tomoshibi is trying to say. Different strokes for different folks I suppose. As for Irma, well I'd like to think she got some ass after the show's end and her having a relatively happy life there after.

The continuity of the original series is often extremly dodgy. In fact, that may be one of the only times she ever rejected a Turtle, in other instances she comes on them or Splinter, or other guest Mutant characters. She's quite picky on a given day it seems...Turtles or bust if she's in the mood, but humans or bust in another.

As for the thread, I don't see a lot of problems with it. Scarily enough, it's far less adolescent than some of the disgusting images I've seen in the "April is Hot" thread (One image in there needs to be deleted). The only "hot" image of Irma in here is the one that reenforces that "Ugly Betty" style, yet it's kind of inaccurate (she never had braces as far as I know), and a lot of this discussion on her (besides who and what she wanted to get laid with) is how underestimating of her own charm she is despite her apperances. This is a subject that affects a lot of women

I just don't get why there is so much bitching and complaining.

And I agree with ZariusTwo about Irma. Her standards seemed to change from episode to episode at times. What I think is interresting about Green with Jealousy is the unspoken tension with Donatello trying to cure his brothers of their lust for Irma while having the under lying theme of Donatello's supressed emotions adressed.

Yeah, that episode was just... I dunno... I mean, Irma always wanted some turtle-action, now she has 3 of them wildly in love with her and giving her all sorts of gifts that she adores.... and THEN she freaks out and runs away? The hell? And yeah.. I still feel it was kinda wrong for the turtles (and April) to be joking and laughing while poor Irma was running off in tears...


Rocksteady alone with April in a sub.....? *shudders*

I just find it a little annoying when we can discuss Leo decapitating Shredder in the comics or all the times Baxter got mutilated on the new show to the point he was just a brain in a jar but the second one mentions how hot April is or notes how Irma acted a tad on the horny side sometimes, it's Mod-Alert time.
In Sweden, it's the opposite since at least the 1970's. The politicians complain more over violent shows, movies and comic books more than pornography. The Texas Chain Saw Massacre was banned until 1994, when the cut version was allowed. The uncut version was banned until 2001 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0072271/.
