The female Jedi knight who had the tentacle-like hair. Yum.
The Jedi knight who guards the crystals used to make light sabers. Further yum.
Yeah, Leia and the possible outcomes of that interrogation scene was totally one of my first real fantasies that I thought through in any depth. Jabba getting Leia out of that bulky armor in RotJ was another good one.
I'm not sure I remember the guards you're talking about.... piccy?

Disregarding the pr0n-fest above for the moment, this is actually very simple. Through sex, humans reproduce. Even though we've developed sex into a recreational activity in addition to (and often instead of) a biological neccessity for the continuation of the species, there's still the primal urge to have sex for the purpose of reproduction, even if we're not consciously aware of it.
We also desire strong, healthy offspring, and this is accomplished by mixing up the genes. That's partially why a lot of people find persons of other ethnicities attractive. Even a generation or two of inbreeding turns up negative traits. What better way to add to the gene pool than by reproducing with a person from another planet?
It is very dark. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.
That's a very good point.....but then why are humans not obsessesing over having sex with animals? I mean, there are some people who are into that thing, but I've been led to believe it's not widespread.

Because aliens are more obviously humanoid, and could be considered able to reproduce with humans.

Genetic incompatablity, for one. Lack of a generally humanoid form in most animals, and possibly most importantly, lack of intelligence and no way of communicating meaningfully beyond a very basic level.

Do you mean aliens as portrayed in science fiction?
And anyways, crossbreeding shit like half-vulcans makes absolutely no scientific sense.
I've fantasized about almost every star wars alien with tits. especially those Kaminoans, what with their long slender necks and baby seal eyes.
Frozian come in at a close second.
after that, it's all Chiss, Twi'lek, Miraluka, Nautolan, Woostoid, Zabrak, Zeltrons, and whatever species that chick with the antenna in her skull is.
The American dream is to prosper by your chosen means, make your own decisions independent from some asshole in a fancy building. to live, love, and die by your own choices and passions.
and to tell the British royalty to eat a bag of dicks.

I beleive he talked about why people are attracted to said aliens, as portrayed in sci-fi. Because they appear more or less like humans, it makes more sense to mate with them than non-humanoid species (or humanoids that appear too diffrent, like apes), even though half-breeds wouldn't work.
I mean, infertility or birth control aren't exactly tunrn-offs.

Whether or not it makes sense depends on your scientific framework and the biology of the various species. If some othe race has been tinkering with our genes in order to produce a particular result, it's possible we could interbreed with other raced they'd tinkered with.
But that's all beside the point. The parts of the brain that look at an image and go "hurrrr me want" do not have a degree in biology - they pick up on a collection of visual cues, interpret the result as "mateable", and hormones start flooding out. A number of studies have shown that various species of fish will interpret anything with one or two specific traits as a mate or rival, regardless of how vastly different the rest of it looks, and I think it's fair to say something similar happens with humans. We see a mostly-human-looking alien and interpret it as "sexy" because the part of the brain regulating that process doesn't pick up on the non-human traits (like skin colour, tendrils coming out of its head, etc).

It also depends on how you assume life originated on earth and the other planets. We have no way to know what technology "primitive" races had. Why is it that hard to assume that "primitive" humans couldn't have found a way off planet to another world, and due slight differences in gravity etc, evolved the pointed ears of vulcans or the forehead ridges of Klingons. In other words Vulcans would be Homo Sapian Vulcanis instead of Homo sapian sapian, essentially the same the branch off the family tree so close as to be virtually non exisitant. Therefore it would not really be any different for a half breed that way as people who consider themselves half native american, or half chinese or whatever here on earth.

If she's not got an octopus in her cunt, she's not really Japanese.
I tend to think that the attraction to imaginary aliens (as modern social archetypes) is more of a psychological phenomenon than anything to do with reproductive urges.. . having more to do with desires for power, control, and intimacy with said archetypes, and whatever they represent for the person feeling the attraction.
Ravendrake, would you mind helping me find an image of the crystal keeper? She was older, to my mind quite attractive, and unless i'm remembering incorrectly (entirely possible, i have no memory for movies) she was in discussion with a young paduan of her own.
