Vampire offers - you say yes or no?

[Crocoduck]

Why has the subject of sex not entered this conversation? Can I have sex if I'm a vamp? The facts about vampires seam to change depending on which movie I watch.
I would be very happy to feed on televangelists, faith healers, psychics and anyone named Barry without any guilt.

Would you willingly accept a vampire's offer to turn you? 

Ye I did, it's OK too.
You can go out in the day just cover up, you should do this anyway, especially if you are unsightly or you live where the sun has a bite.
Innocence doesn't make any difference to taste, some things do, but you develop a nose for it.  I can detect someone with Hemochromatosis from a mile away.

Oh and crosses, you don't have to worry about them, they are only a little more annoying than when human.
If you need a mirror to shave you may have a problem.
If you eat messy food just assume your face is grubby and wash it.
Beards are a problem unless you have an Egor to keep them free of crumbs.
You don't have to be a Count, you can choose your title.  I'm a Magic at the moment.

Well I hope these points help those trying to make a decision.

What kind of vampire...True Blood, Angel, Dracula?

Exactly. In general I'd reject the idea of living forever, or a single liquid diet, but if Bill Compton was offering... Edward Cullen not so much.

Very informative.

Do I get to have sex?

[Tank]

If one believed that a vampire could turn you would you not also have to believe that one has a soul and was thus immortal anyway? Or are we talking accepting a proven immortality vs a promised but unproven immortality? If it were a 'natural' immortality and there were no 'supernatural' immortality I'd go for the turn.

[Melmoth]

Anne Rice's sexy vampires - hell yes. Wouldn't even have to think about it. Immortality, self-conscious evil, intimacy with people that look questionably young, having your life narrated in a baroque style with lots of curly Qs, c'mon.

True Blood's water balloon vampires - so long as I didn't catch the accent. Or EVER have to talk to that unbearable Sookie woman.

Twilight's sparkly idiot vampires - no, I'd rather fart my own leg off.

[The Magic Pudding]

Do I get to have sex?

That depends, do you get to now?
It's not impossible, I'd say the likelihood after the change is the same as before.
You become infertile though so best to freeze some eggs or sperm before turning if that's a concern

[xSilverPhinx]

Guys, guys...you don't have to worry about the sunlight, that was Bram Stoker's creation, not the stuff of legend.

I wouldn't accept, because of their immortality. Can't imagine having to live that long.

Well no, I'm old have COPD from years of smoking and huffing smoke from before firefighters wore S.C.B.A......if I live as I do now then I want no part of it. Immortality would suck.

What kind of vampire...True Blood, Angel, Dracula?

True Blood.  Because Eric would kick Buffy's ass in a fair fight.*

But if adding shapeshifting and controlling dark beasties to the list of vampire powers is a deal maker for you, Whitney, then please be a Bram Stoker vampiress with my blessings.

* Buffy would still win, of course, because she's Buffy, and, well, she wins.  Probably the moral of the story would be that her friends love her so she's invincible so long as she doesn't give up and they don't either.

Awww, Vampy Asmo is cute!

My first inclination is that I would pass. I kind of like the idea of a limited life span, and blood tastes yucky 

[Crow]

If its the vampire depicted in Blade, Queen of the Damned (well all the Anne Rice novels), Underworld, and True Blood; then sign me up I'm sold.

However if its like those depicted in 30 days of nights, Priest, I am legend, Let the Right One In; then I have to say no thanks I will take a rain check.

[envilid]

I am legend

Those were more mutanty.

In the film yes, but in the book they were vampires.
