[QUOTE]Originally posted by TSN: [QB] I would think only one gender could have a set mating cycle. Otherwise, there would be no marriage in their society. In "Amok Time", what if Spock had headed back to Vulcan, only to have his fiancée say "Oh, sorry, I don't hit my next [i]pon farr[/i] for six months. Could you just hold that thought...?"? Also, I doubt it has anything to do w/ pent-up emotions, really? Has that ever been explicitly stated? Because, if that were true, I can't imagine that it would come out to seven years for everyone. If someone was better or worse at suppressing their emotions, or if someone was more or less emotional by nature, their cycle would be different. It also wouldn't explain why they die if they don't get "satisfaction". I'm thinking it's just a biological thing for all Vulcans, regardless of whether or not they follow Surak-ism... [/QB][/QUOTE]
