You're going to like who you like with someone, even if you can't rationalize it. But, I think it's fun to discuss, as both sides have pros/cons, I'm learning a lot of new things from it, getting new appreciations for the other side, and it's just fun to defend my ship!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542720484561493051.post-9806186619919346812013-02-08T08:34:55.051-08:002013-02-08T08:34:55.051-08:00yeah, Kate's attraction to sawyer and the chem...yeah, Kate's attraction to sawyer and the chemistry there is undeniable..I did often feel like the show would often portray Kate unable to leave Sawyers side, for one reason or another, and that hurt as a jater.But Kate drifted back to jack a lot too, perhaps even more; still, jaters often suffered a lot of kicks in the face.But, I don't know how anyone can deny that it must hurt to see Kate clearly upset over jack + Juliet and turning to sawyer with tears in her eyes, telling him to shut up..That's not how I want to be with someone, a second choice, consolation prize. <br />And i am jealous as a jater that skate got more screen time when intimate and shown more relationship-focused issues than Jate.And, I have to agree it also sucks that jack's just not as good a kisser as sawyer haha (tho the kiss in 316 was hott). but that's a function of many factors, including the writers strike cutting down on the jatier season 4 (in which more relationship growth was intended to be shown but had to be cut for space, acc. to the writers).And tho we don't see a jate sex scene full-on, I mean come on, they're living together, are both attractive, drink wine, have orange panties lying on the floor, are naked in the shower together etc.Even if they've never had sex,last time I checked that's not the only thing or a main-determining factor I want out of a long-term relationship, or how I'd determine that skate is better than jate, b/c they had sex on screen.<br />Sometimes I can't really rationalize my reasons for disliking skate-maybe it's my frequent disgust of sawyer (and that, while i like his character, think he’s overrated and forgiven too easily..and don't find him as attractive as people make him out to be) and how he continued to con/one-up Kate and she’d keep going along with it. Yes, they have a strong connection, get each other, think alike, and I think he does have best wishes for her at heart, but to me, sawyer always put himself first (mostly early on, but also later in the show too).He'd manipulate Kate and she still cared deeply for/hung around him. Not necessarily a terrible thing, but I know I wouldn't want to be in that relationship. I think jack and Kate balanced each other out more; there were trust issues but there was also deep affection, sincerity, care, love.their relationship functioned like an analogy, backbone,"soul" i believe tptb called it, for the show; it wasnt just a romance but showcased redemption, acceptance, selflessness…All things Lost centers on. Skate I'm sure had these too, but for some reason I still find their relationship off, unfulfilling, kind of slimy- perhaps it's because they never worked fully when together because they could never hide each others faults.Both still were untrustworthy of the other. Once jack and Kate overcame or could overcome those trust issues/differences I think they made a better whole.<br />Yeah, it does kind of frustrate me that jater fantasy land often has more going for it than the real show..(Which, by the way, also extends into eternity in the afterlife.. get with it) But I guess that's for the best, as Kate and jack both had destinies apart from their relationship (though that was a big part of them) and one reason i always preferred these two is b/c their relationship goes beyond romance or physical attraction..They were teammates, trusting,friends since day 1.They had more obstacles to overcome, but eventually did (mostly) and just because there wasn't more time spent focusing on them getting it on, well, I don't think that's relevant to who should be with who. It would've been nice to see, but lack of it is no indication of who Kate’d rather be with.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542720484561493051.post-38371074501814963332008-06-11T19:14:00.000-07:002008-06-11T19:14:00.000-07:00kate said...

Been waiting ages for that, and I'm glad that turned out to be the time-stopping kiss. That was simply beautiful. </I><BR/><BR/><BR/>I agree that the Des/Penny kiss was beautiful. But the kiss that was time-stopping and spectacular, that had been hyped by everyone for two months, is the Skate one. <BR/><BR/>According to the official recap…<BR/><BR/>http://abc.go.com/primetime/lost/index?pn=recap#t=46481&d=106725<BR/><BR/>About Sawyer/Kate…<BR/><BR/>“Sawyer looks at the others and makes a decision. He leans over to Kate, whispers something in her ear, <B><I>and then kisses Kate the kind of kiss that stops time. It's nothing short of spectacular. </I></B>He breaks away and tells Kate to just do it. Then he jumps out of the chopper into the ocean below. He bops up to the surface and watches as the chopper disappears, then he starts swimming for the shore.”<BR/><BR/>About Des/Penny…<BR/><BR/>“As the boat pulls up beside the raft, they can hear a man shouting in Portuguese. He says the name Ms. Widmore, and time stops for Desmond. Penny looks over the railing, and Desmond finally sees her. For the first time in over three years, their eyes meet. Desmond climbs a rope ladder up to the deck, and they run into each other's arms. They hold each other weeping with joy. Desmond can't believe she found him. She tells him she has a tracking station. Desmond tells Penny he loves her and will never leave her again. Penny's crew help the others out of the raft. Desmond introduces Penny to everyone, and Jack tells her they need to talk.”<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><I>kate said…<BR/>Although, I gotta say, we don't REALLY know if any of the Skate moments led to sex either, do we? They can't exactly show it on tv, but how do we know it wasn't just hardcore kissing? Have they ever mentioned getting it on, or is that just implied and accepted? Just wondering…</I><BR/><BR/><BR/>Actually, we do know that Sawyer and Kate have had sex because Sawyer said it to Kate in Eggtown…<BR/><BR/>http://www.lostpedia.com/wiki/Eggtown_transcript<BR/><BR/>“Oh, come on! <B>It's not like we ain't never done it before. </B>Now, I'm cool we didn't go all the way last night. I get it. You were sad. But I mean, how can you resist after that whole "I'll keep you safe" thing?”<BR/><BR/><BR/> <BR/> <I>Robert said... <BR/>Yep, Kate really needs to be with the man who reminds her of the abusive father she murdered. That's what is best for her.</I><BR/><BR/><BR/>I guess you are talking about Jack there because he was the one who was home alone with Aaron, while he was getting drunk, and when Kate came home, he yelled and verbally abused her, and had Aaron not come into the room, we don’t know if it might have escalated to physical abuse as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542720484561493051.post-70279187484298890302008-05-31T07:50:00.000-07:002008-05-31T07:50:00.000-07:00Yep, Kate really needs to be with the man who remi...Yep, Kate really needs to be with the man who reminds her of the abusive father she murdered. That's what is best for her.<BR/><BR/>I guess some women really can't resist bad boys.<BR/><BR/>Not that I'm a fan of Kate with Jack, either. Jack seems to approach romance with everyone -- Kate, Sarah, and Juliet -- as if it were a duty. I can't tell whether that's supposed to be part of Jack's character or a limitation of Matthew Fox as an actor.<BR/><BR/>Frankly I'm bored with the whole thing. I think all three of them can do better, and would be better off with some therapy in any case. Kate flirts with Jack while she's sleeping with Sawyer. Why should Sawyer settle for that? Because she's pretty?<BR/><BR/>I don't know what the future holds for Jack or Kate, but I think Sawyer has martyr written all over him.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10689824875959627236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542720484561493051.post-32135754862319001992008-05-30T18:07:00.000-07:002008-05-30T18:07:00.000-07:00Despite the fact that there was a Skate kiss in th...Despite the fact that there was a Skate kiss in the finale...gotta say I'm really pleased that we got an even better Des/Penny kiss. Been waiting ages for that, and I'm glad that turned out to be the time-stopping kiss. That was simply beautiful. Sometimes, I wish people would forget the whole Jack/Kate/Sawyer triangle and embrace the real ships of the show, like Desmond/Penny, Sun/Jin, Rose/Bernard. I gotta say, I enjoy seeing relationships form over time instead of quickie sex romps in cages or hallway hip sex (lol that last one)<BR/><BR/>Although, I gotta say, we don't REALLY know if any of the Skate moments led to sex either, do we?
