So how important is canon, then?

He was supposed to be mirror Kirk sent there by the tantalus device. Shatner himself didn't remember any details when I asked him about it XD
The Tantalus device? That can't be right. That wouldn't send him to another time. It would just leave him devoid of a mind. He must've had it mixed up.
 
where are the quotes supporting your position then? 4 vs 0 is still kinda clear. the entire medical database (EMH) is limited? XD
Yes, quite limited when it comes to Vulcans. No, I don't trust the EMH's statement.
i read it as attraction, curiosity and a bond due to their common ancestry, nothing more.
Yeah, I don't think that is the implication at all.
ah, so you mean the mere mechanics of it? what would be the reason for doing it then, if you're an emotionally suppressed and logical and distant vulcan?
Procreation, maintaining their species, becoming close to their partner, in the case of a non-Vulcan partner satisfying their partner's needs. Recognizing it is a biological function and thus requires no other justification than that.
i require desire. XD
Oh, to be young again.
 
Nothing that you will accept, because you’ve made up your mind you’re right. You don’t even accept the words of the creators and IP holder.
you still haven't shown me where any words like sex or mating or anything else referring to sexuality do appear on your side.

the concept was that they're sent to the prime universe's past and found by the NX-01, IIRC
 
So you think Amanda Grayson only had sex with Sarek once every seven years?
That appears to be the argument, yes.

"I know, I know. It isn't logical."

PICARD: Perrin. Amanda. I wanted to give you so much more. I wanted to show you such tenderness. But that is not our way. Spock, Amanda, did you know? Perrin, can you know how much I love you? I do love you!
 
Sarek was probably rocking that every night and twice on Sunday. :lol:
"It's only logical." :techman:
PICARD: Perrin. Amanda. I wanted to give you so much more. I wanted to show you such tenderness. But that is not our way. Spock, Amanda, did you know? Perrin, can you know how much I love you? I do love you!
Sorry, no mention of mating or sex so it doesn't count by the rules of this thread.

That doesn’t say anything about sex.
 
This discussion inevitably brings us to Vulcan adolescence and forced marriage. Do Vulcans force their children to get married at the first sign of puberty or are they allowed to reach adulthood?
 
As a teenager, he rebelled against the Vulcan ideal of logic and reasoning when he fell in love with a Terrelian girl named Jara, the daughter of a Terrelian diplomat stationed on Vulcan. Tuvok experienced Shon-ha'lock – love at first sight – and was willing to violate every tenet of Vulcan philosophy simply to be near her; unfortunately, Jara did not return Tuvok's feelings, and Tuvok chose to leave her. He later spent several months in isolation studying with a Vulcan master, where he learned to subdue his emotions. (VOY: "Gravity")

Vulcan’ even have a term for love at first sight!
 
y'all want vulcans to have tenderless, passionless, non-reproductive sex without love? illogical.
Never in 21 years here did I ever think I'd make a post like this but here it goes...

... blood flow causes the reproductive organs to swell. Swell to the point of physical discomfort. So the organs have to be satiated in order to restore normal blood flow. Normal blood flow is logical.

Why do I feel like Fonzie jumping over a shark?
