Line 12:
* Keisei and Umehara from ''[[Shikabane Hime]]''.
* Miroku from ''[[Inuyasha]]''. He would touch other girls butts and every time he meets a woman, he would ask, "Would you bear my children?" even the demons.
** It's actually [[In the Blood]], sort-of: his grandfather was once defeated and cursed by Naraku, who appared to him as a beautiful woman. Add how Miroku was raised by ''yet another'' [[Dirty Old Monk]] after his father died, and is it any wonder that he turned out to be the local [[Handsome Lech]]?
* Ikkou Satonaka, the monastic protagonist of ''[[Ah My Buddha]]'', can access a [[Super Mode]] fueled by lust for the [[Unwanted Harem|many]] attractive [[Miko]] he lives with.
* Yuki's brother from ''[[Gravitation]]''.
Line 66:
* Most Westerners (and probably many in other countries as well) are well aware of the cases of child molestation by Catholic priests in the past couple decades.
* Christian monks in the Middle Ages were known to frequent (and occasionally even run) brothels and use their social influence to coerce women into sex.
** In some cases, there was a ''reason'' that the Church ran the brothels: the law ''required'' them to do so. In the Middle Ages, majority opinion was that prostitution could not be eliminated, so it was best for a trusted institutioninstitution—the -- the Church -- toChurch—to ensure that it happened safely and safely out of sight (i.e. in the [[Red Light District]]). The monks may or may not have actually been customers.
*** Male sexuality was seen as [[All Men Are Perverts|"a mighty river that]] [[I'm a Man, I Can't Help It|could not be tamed,"]] and use of a prostitute was thought to be a far better option than extramarital affairs.
** Stories and jokes about lustful monks and friars were about as popular in the Middle Ages as stories about greedy lawyers in modern America. They shouldn't necessarily be taken as historical fact.
