That has nothing to do with my post, though.

I thought that the Guardian looked like that but I dismissed it thinking I was perverted. I'm certainly glad I'm not the only one who thought it. I never really thought to look into the subject though.... :?

The yellow ring is actually the Twilight Bracelet though?? I never knew that! That leads me to another question... Is the Key of the Twilight also Kite's Bracelet?

The Key of the Twilight is Aura, the Twilight Bracelet, Xth Form, and so on.

Is it odd that this topic caught my eye? xD

Anyway, I suppose that it's perfectly reasonable that the Guardian would be such a thing. Afterall, what establishes dominance more in the natural animal than the male reproductive organ?

PWNED.
AT, your insight that never ceases to amaze me... That kind of thinking just opens up all kinds of possiblities to the less-than-obvious. I love it, it's a great interpretation.

the data drain in the first games is phallic, too, it represents procreation

when the drain is fired, the braclet expands(flares) and the streams of energy(semen) rocket off, the monster is encapsulated in an orb, representing an egg, and the orb is penetrated by lines coming in from the sides like sperm fertilizing the egg, the monsters, being representing inferior females(the superior one being aura, or possibly morganna) are made weaker, representing how the lower females biologically can weaken a species(not making any value calls here, just trying to interpret X3) the monster then represents the child, and, even in the rare case with the guardian data drained where it becomes stronger, it represents a young as it is smaller and has less endurance, it is the child, however, of a more superior parent(which makes sense, giving the maxed stats of the guardian) finally, the monster must be protect broken(in heat/ losing virginity) before it can be data-drained(bred) showing another bit of phallic imagery

there are also bits in the phases, I noticed it the first time, but, I cannot remember what atm and I have classes and such(I first posted this right before bed, the phases part is an edit) so, it will be a bit before I analyze them

to be fair, I DID have to stretch so as to properly incorporate the original monster that is why the inferior female thing, it seemed to be the only one that would fit into the metaphor, though, the offspring argument also admittedly DOES fall apart all cause of especially one DD monster, long-lived, who could not really represent a child in any way(being incredibly old and all :P)

Oh my god... *facepalm* It actually makes sense... WTF!?

I leave for a few months to avoid G.U. spoilers, and this is what happens!? Jeezus...

Anyway, I actually have a wallscroll with Tsukasa on it where he's holding the staff in such a way that the bit curved around the little red floating ball thing looks like an erect p3n15...
And now I know why...

Thank you, dothackers.net, thank you.
