      And further to the point, they didn’t actually fall in love until Anakin was getting ready to graduate to knighthood. That would put him at 18, maybe 19 and her at 23/24-ish.

      He was just nine and she was fourteen.

      (14 * 0.5) + 7 = 14
      (9 * 0.5) + 7 = 11.5

      Sounds like Padme got some splainin to do.

        But she also didn’t take a romantic interest in him until 10 years later.

          So for reference with updated numbers. She would be 24, and he would be 19…

          (24 * 0.5) + 7 = 19

          Well would you look at that.

              The common wisdom (at least in the US college I attended) for the youngest acceptable age gap for a person is to halve their age then add 7 years. So for a 24 year old, 19 is as young as their partner can acceptably be in a relationship.

                I couldn’t possibly imagine a relationship with a 26-year-old.

            Probably just a coincidence. Not an attempt at ass covering at all! Nope!

          I don’t know about that. There were some significant glances in that first film. She was giving a vibe. There was something there me thinks…

        I can see the artistic appeal of them, but personally I tend to look at practicality first and most of them were absolutely idiotic in that regard.

          personally I tend to look at practicality

          not usually how royal clothing works, or at least the practical goal isn’t moving around easily or being comfortable, the practical goal is projecting the image of being royalty, important for commanding the awe and loyalty of the subjects

            Eh, sure, but some of her outfits would be completely insane to wear in a war situation as the security service would have a very hard time evacuating her

              Doesn’t she usually have her body double wear these clothes, and she herself wear the more practical attendant(?) outfit?

                It’s about 50/50. She spends most of the movie dressed as a handmaiden, but that’s largely because the Tatooine sequence lasts so long.

                  Me neither exactly but I don’t think her outfits are that unreasonable considering this.
