By feminist do you mean the same kind of feminists that go "women could do anything, men Can't do 1/10th of what women can, and I'll beat the crap out of my boyfriend if he ever disobeys me"? Or does feminists have another definition?? Yea. and then when those kids are teenagers they'll be exhausted at all times that they aren't hanging out with Uncle Sokka and Aunt Toph, or Sokka and Aunt Suki, whichever one is cannon. and for those short breaks Aang and Katara would be resting on the couch and at one point we will see Katara: Why did we ever want kids? Aang: Because of the way we get them ;D Katara: oh yea.

Or does feminists have another definition?? Feminism is a set of theories social and political practices in open criticism of social relations, is created from the awareness of the inequalities caused by gender and the search for social justice. So I do not think that has to do with the number of children they decide Katara breed. Lol, I never had to think it would be as a family Kataang xD... Katara: ¡¡ No ! ! "Aang Jr. 3" ...¡¡ does not riding that animal !! xD

I don't think Katara would be the slightest bit upset having a dozen of Aang's babies. LOL Not only because she loves him, but because I think she'd have a great respect for and want to help him begin to repopulate the Air Nomad's. I don't think she'd see it as pressure in the slightest. Not Katara. Another woman might, yes. But not Katara.
I don't think any amount of kids in her world would stop Katara from being Katara, nor do I believe that they would tie her down.

I do not think so either, if we take into account that after the death of her mother she was practically forced to care for all children of the tribe ... His personality is very maternal, she has a great record

My god 12 kids wow thats a lot of babies.
I would be happy with two a boy and a girl.
Hmm I don't know all I want is an epoluge please mike and brain don't leave us hanging.lol
I also think that katara and Aang would be good parents. They both have the skills for the most part.
It would be good for the show as it would help it go out on a happy note.

I need closure, not the short epilogue like in HP #7. More like the ending to the Lord of the Rings, that would work for me. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 15 or 20 minutes of juicy after war details.

I could go for either the lord of the rings ending or the HP ending... both were satisfying in my opinion. As for Aang's reaction to his daughters boyfriend? I feel like he'd be incredibly oblivious and probably try to be friends with him even if he is a phchofirebender who rides a motorcycle not that there are motorcycles in the Avatar world... he'd probably be like "nice bike! Want to see my glider? How many miles do you get per gallon" and mini-katara would be like "Dad! You're embarrassing me!" What kind of benders do you think they will have and what do you think their kids will be like? Here's how I see it. Four kids, the oldest is an earth bender. Then twin boys, one a firebender and the other a water bender and they'd fight all the time. Then fourth: a girl who's an airbender... she'd be daddy's little girl!!

I don't know if Aang and Katara could have fire and earthbenders. I don't think fire and earth bending are part of Aang's genes, they were just given to him because he was the avatar. Unless one of his parents was a fire or earthbender, I think he'd only be able to produce air and waterbenders with Katara.

I'm not sure that the Avatar can have children of every element. I think, if Roku is any indication, that the Avatar will have children of his or her native element. For instance, Zuko is Roku's descendant, and he bends only fire, nothing else. Granted, that's mixed with the firebending Firelord family and Aang will have Katara, a girl from the Water Tribe but for the most part I'm going for Airbending kiddies.

^ Ditto. I think that Aang's ability to bend all 4 elements stems from him being the Avatar, and isn't something that can be passed along to future generations. Though it would be cool if it did Which reminds me of something. Some of you were mentioning Aang & Katara having a lot of children to repopulate the Air Nomad community. Wouldn't their kids have to marry airbenders to help regenerate the ANs? Or would that even matter? I'm just curious.

Not if they're airbenders! If Aang could have airbender babies w/ Katara, a non airbender, then those airbenders should be able to have more airbenders with water/earth/fire or nonbenders as well

yea, they could have more airbenders with other benders/nonbenders. Otherwise the Air Nation would be created through a lot of incest *shudders*. I definitely think that is not what Katara and Aang, or the rest of the group would want to feel pressured into repopulating the airbenders that they marry their sister/brother/related person.

Anyway, the beauty of bending is that it isn't genetic, and it can't be diluted. You either are a bender or you're not. See, if there was only one left of a physical race, then even if they had kids which resembled them that race would eventually integrate with the other races. However, bending is more spiritual, and I'm sure bending could appear in the right person many generations after the last bender in that family. Still, rebuilding an entire race is tough stuff. I don't think the entire civilization will ever be rebuilt as it was. I think t here will be a Nation for the next Airbending Avatar to be born into though.

Yea I figured that Aang and Katara couldn't have earthbending/firebending babies but I wish they could. But I can definetly see a little Airbender girl who's shy and quiet with airbender tattoos (because she' be a master really early like Aang). I just think it would be adorable to see Aang taking care of his little girl and teaching her how to use an air scooter and fly a glider... I've started numerous oneshots about this but they never end up finished! If I ever succeed in finishing one I'll post it here

actually, there is a way to allow the next Avatars to reach their full potential without having kids like rabbits. Aang can follow in the Waterbender tradition and draw out the different forms of airbending, as well as maybe a written manuscript on how to think like an airbender, like Toph explained (sort of) of how to think like an earthbender. He also just might throw in a few recipes for fruit pies and how to make a glider.
