All I hear about this TS Harmony stuff.
The entire prohibition or stigma of werewolves fucking was so stupid to begin with that its removal in 2E was like the dawn of the third day at Helm's Deep.
They took that out and that's great, but in the new edition, fucking a human is, IIRC, a Harmony trigger towards Flesh (discussion has raged over whether wolf-bloods count).
So if you're a werewolf and you spend a night of passionate, fleshy-fleshy contact with some random human you hooked up with at the bar (or, even worse, suddenly find yourself in a committed relationship with someone who has absolutely no connection to anything spiritual) then that's a trigger towards Flesh--and that makes sense. It doesn't make it a bad thing, it just makes it one more thing that affects a werewolf's day-to-day struggle for balance. It can be an extremely good thing if you're imbalanced towards Spirit.
So the whole stigmatizing of this seems weird to me, especially in this post-TS world we all love to go on and on about where we dfon't judge people's sexual proclivities in their pretendyfuntimes but suddenly decide that if they actually have it mean something to their character and have an effect on their character's progression in a mechanical way, it's "get your TS out of my face omgggggg".
Again, asking staff to read your TS log is stupid.
