How may times a day would a space marine have to pee ,

How many times would they poop.

Do their Genitals suffer from the effects of becoming a full space marine

Sounds wierd, but we all have wonderd

(use the most sophisticated english i can living in spain and all )

Are those legitimate questions?

Yep

In 40k there is just war ... nothing else...

I only know that their pee and poop gets absorbed and recycled into nutrients by their armour. A rather nasty detail (especially considering that this implies certain “connections” between the suit and the Marine that some fans may find distasteful or unheroic), but ultimately a very useful gadget that enables them to survive for prolonged periods without any supplies, boosting their individual independence just in case they get cut off (which they are often at risk to, given their usual combat doctrine of striking at the core of an enemy army instead of relying on conventional fronts).

Apart from the necessary connections between the genitals and the armour (provided there are any genitals left after surgery), there's a certain validity to the theory that they would atrophy as an effect from their medical therapies - look to real world athletes to get an example. And lastly ... the Emperor wouldn't want them to breed uncontrollably, so why would he leave them with the means to do so? Marines exist for one purpose only - to wage war upon the enemies of Mankind.

So would their armour stink? and if they needed to go when they wernt in their suit?

Can love between a space Marine and a Sister of battle ever lead to something more than looking at each other with mild amusment

They must still be left with their male parts, please say they do or it wil totaly change the way i look at my little dudes on the shelf, and make them feel less manly

No. Nooo. NOOOOOOOOO. Space Marines and Sisters of Battle can't have a relationship.

No.

Naah, I'd imagine that the connections wouldn't allow any, uh, gases to "escape". Or maybe it even contains a self-cleaning device (though the idea that this job is done by Chapter Serfs and actually regarded as a honor is somewhat amusing)?

Just a theory, of course - I'm not aware of any fluff concerning this, but I just don't "feel" like the armour interior would stink. Really doesn't vibe with their image, imho!

RogalDorn69 wrote:and if they needed to go when they wernt in their suit?

I'd say then they would go "normally". Whatever is used to establish a connection for the transfer of urine can obviously be disconnected - regardless of whether the Marine would keep an atrophied version of his original genitals or if he's left with a ... uh ... hole with a plug there. Grimdark?

RogalDorn69 wrote:Can love between a space Marine and a Sister of battle ever lead to something more than looking at each other with mild amusment

I don't even think it could exist in the first place - both are way too indoctrinated and focused on their respective tasks. Though there are certain Marine Chapters (Wolves) that may be an exception to this.

Note that, apart from the last bit, the above is mere conjecture and personal interpretation! There's really not a lot of material to go by regarding this topic.

You're joking now, obviously.

There are . . . sigh . . . sorry, I just hate this kind of spam so much . . . ahem: There are plenty of threads about space marine penises already and if you really want to read about space marine penises (not judging even.a.little.bit) you can use the search function. But, you know, not this again. So a-lockity-lock-lock.
