Galadriel and Celeborn were married in the First Age and the story takes place at the end of the Third, so they were married for at least six and a half thousand years. During that time, they had one child. How often do you think they had sex?
It would be prudent for a sentient species with such long lifespans to practice planned procreation rather than multiplying exponentially like a culture on a petri dish.
There’s the Elven Rope that’s light as a feather and strong as steel. No reason there could not have been the Elven Condom that’s thin and impermeable.
Thats weirdly more of a Warhammer fantasy hold over what with dommy mommy Morathi, mind you unlike the Aeldar they didnt murderfuck orgy Slaanesh into existance.
Dude it’s elves who knows. She also slowes the passage of time by like MONTHS for a day, on top of being immortal it’s pretty obnoxious. Maybe they only plow once a 1000 years, or maybe it’s every day and they are only fertile once in thousands of years.

Successfully millions of times, unsuccessfully once.
Once.
But elf sex is crazy weird. Like, they were still doing it while Frodo and the Fellowship were there.
All Celeborn has is Teleporno.
I does my heart good to see more Silmarillion memes leak into lotrmemes.
To be fair, his name is Celeborn. Can’t blame him for being celibate.
No, I blame Tolkien and his literally making elves only bang for the purpose of procreation because he’s a repressed Catholic weirdo sometimes.
Jokes on him, modern society has agreed elves are hos.

I’m sure they had them, but they’re incompatible. Can’t make Elven Ropes while wearing an Elven Condom.
Fair enough, but I think we can agree that Tolkien elves were bad at planning
He could have just given them all narrow urethras like Hank Hill
Some would say 40k maybe went a little too far in the opposite direction with dark elves.

So they say…
AkShUaLlY…. It’s pronounced “Kel-a-born”….but I still applaud your humor!
Most, if not all c’s are pronounced as hard K’s in Elvish (Elven?) languages.
It does get a little weird with places like Cirith Ungol, but there are, allegedly, older maps where it’s spelled Kirith.
