No turtle / human mating

[Candy Kappa]

And yeah, salmonella can be a huge issue. Turtles are carriers without getting sick themselves, that is why you have to wash regularly after handling your pet turtles and don't let children play with them unsupervised.

I'm pretty sure that based on 'screw it, it's a cartoon' logic, the 'parts would fit' and they'd just have green human-ish junk. It's just weird to think that they have humanoid arms, legs, teeth, hand, feet, whatever but oh no, downstairs they simply MUST be like real turtles.

Still stand if they ever get some, it will be for the sole purpose of getting some. Actually having kids and blah blah would probably come later when they're adult mutant ninja turtles. But c'mon, they're teenagers, if it ever comes down to it, if the comic ever goes down that path (cause the cartoon never will), I'm sure it'll mostly be cause sex feels good, not to preserve the turtle family line or whatever.

Even Mirage Mikey was surprised Seri's eggs were his. He was just getting some, he wasn't planning on being a father.

Well, cartoon aside, the junk is still stored internally, which could be a save indicator that it is more turtle junk then... Human junk.

Buut. The Nick turtles are made of tardis technology being able to completely hide their legs, arms and head inside their small shells, so it's not far fetched they could do that with human looking junk as well.

Once April goes green.... she'll never want another scene....?

Gives new meaning to April calling Donnie 'D' a lot lately. We all know he gives her the D.

To far man, to far, this is a serious thread...

To add onto Candy Kappa's info about animals with STDs/STIs, if animals are going to exchange bodily fluids with humans. People need to realize that animals have their own type of immunity, which is why people can get the Plague, Brain & Spinal Meningitis, MRSA (antibiotic resistant staph infections), etc.

That's why I never understood why pet owners let their dogs and cats lick their mouths. They have no clue where that mouth has been.

Edit: Oh... and I guess this article ("Sex with Animals (SWA): Behavioral Characteristics and Possible Association with Penile Cancer. A Multicenter Study") would be relevant also:

Conclusion.  SWA is a risk factor for PC and may be associated with venereal diseases. New studies are required in other populations to test other possible nosological links with SWA.

that's not how the mutagen works in continuities where splinter was originally a raaaaaat]

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Actually, it still could be- Splinter himself was Yoshi's pet in those cases, and the turtles still came from a pet shop. so either way, BOTH Splinter and the turtles could still have had trace amounts of human DNA on them from other sources, such as the unnamed kid, or Yoshi himself in Splinter's case.


And the SIZE factor was the main part of my argument against it being possible earlier. Even if it was human shaped, it would likely still be the proportionate size of a turtle's. (Which would make it at least 14-16 inches, if the plastron size is anything to go by....)

After looking in the book of world records the larges human one is 34 cm in length and 16cm in circumference. So trutle most be bigger then that ...... I'm going to to stop there. Some thing I just thought of. Do any one still think Rahzar have one?

P.s. The book of world records is #^%@ up!Why would some people what to be in that book for that thing!?

For nick one it would be around 15 inches, for the new movie it would be over 20...

[MsMarvelDuckie]

That record is for an EXTREME, though- and doesn't mention that the record-holder for that PARTICULAR record was (IIRC) a porn star who died of a heart-attack- from getting an erection. Seems he had too much blood going to the wrong location, and it proved fatal..... The average size of a human male (according to Cosmo, which has done several studies of this) is about 6 inches long, and about 1and 1/2 inches around. In other words, about as long as a sharpie pen, or about three times the length of said male's thumb. Think about that.

That estimate for the Nick ones is about right. And if the one for the new movie is even CLOSE to accurate- YIKES!!

"In many species, the length of the phallus can extend to half the length of the entire animal"
That sounds about right.

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Exactly. (Although most of the descriptions I've read say plastron, which is only slightly shorter than the full length of the turtle.)

[Type 97 Chi-ha]

When you think about it, the problem with the Turtles having kids is that who could possibly raise them?

Turtles only have it that long because he's sitting on the top of her shell, it has to be able to reach all of the way to her cloaca. No way does it fit all inside. She'd have to have an extra long cloaca inside of her that went to her midsection if that happened.

As for Razzie, he looks junkless. He probably has to sit like a woman when he goes.

Well. It is a more civil topic then anything gong on the movie section
