I'm not going to point fingers but it's no coincidence that some of the folk getting really into this discussion are the same role-players trying to mate with any and every female miqo'te comes their way.@_@???????
One of my close friends has already given up trying to role-play a miqo'te because not one, but three different 'nunh' characters sent her messages asking if she wanted to bed them. Perhaps it's unfair of me to stereotype but I'm beginning to think the majority of 'nunh' role-players are simply embracing the role purely to get their rocks off.
Like it or not, this is the sort of thing that needs to be addressed early on before it festers and ends up driving a wedge between various groups within the community. There's a time and a place for ERP and that is between two consenting and mature partners in private chat channels, not hanging around Costa del Sol whispering passing players asking if they want to be impregnated.
Well, that is indeed creepy, but... are they actually RPers? I mean, three random nunhs (who I assume are from different tribes, for there aren't as many nunhs in a single one AND there aren't many actually organized tribes out there) whispering random Miqo'tes about breeding doesn't sound very IC, unless there's some info I'm missing. Nunhs only breed with females from their own tribes, after all.

To add some contrast to that case, I can talk about mine. We the Hipparion tribe have gathered many members and have our own Nunh (there's a second Nunh, but he's an NPC). I even have him added to Skype, and he's never ever messaged me about this matter. Granted, my Miqo'te is naive and young, but I believe he hasn't approached K'nahli either.

What I mean to say with this is that you can't generalize; it's not safe to assume that everyone who wants to discuss and understand Miqo'te traditions and culture is some sort of a pervert who only wants to ERP ^^a;
I certainly am not playing a Miqo'te for that *sweatdrops*.
