Talk:Incubus (demon)

message: If Incubi and Succubi had a fixed gender, would their label be defined by their gender, or the gender of the humans they (most often) engaged in sexual acts with? For example, if an incubus (or succubus) had a fixed male form, but was "homosexual", what would they be called?

thread_title:  Incubus or Succubus? 

message: Added a cleanup tag. As it stands now, this article is somewhat of a mess. Certainly there shouldn't be so many see also links, nor that bulleted list. ♫ Melodia Chaconne ♫ 19:26, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Did what I could. Rewrote part. Made bullet points into paragraphs. Removed extraneous links. If it's not germane, it's not germane. If in text, no need in links section. Incorporated and expanded some internal links into paragraph. Still needs proofing. :) Dlohcierekim 16:21, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: The Origins section should be removed. It's all just speculation with no sourcing. It's ok to say, "Soandso believes X," but not the format it is in now. --Lendorien 20:16, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Does anybody know how an incubus (or a demon in general) is "made" if they can't reproduce? Just curious. Statuess 15:55, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Creation of incubi?

message: If anyone is familiar with the Jewish story of Lilith, this might offer some answers as to origin of the beliefs surrounding incubi... basically the story tells of Lilith (first woman, before Eve). She left Adam when they argued about her status as his equal. She went off and had releations with demons. She bore them children. The legend proposes that some of those children were incubi and succubi. This tale is on several Jewish spiritual websites. GuardianZ 10:22, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Jewish Myth of Lilith 

message: Do you think it would be worth mentioning the goof-up Reebok made back in 1996 be shipping 53,000 sets of women's running shoes with the name Incubus on the boxes. Turns out they'd been looking for names for their new product and someone came up with that one... only no-one bothered to look up the meaning first.  It wasn't written on the shoes themselves. Naturally, this is just trivia now, but it did get a lot of attention back in 97 when it first hit the news.  I remember reading about it in Time Magazine.  http://www.petting-zoo.net/~deadbeef/archive/2298.html --Lendorien 09:25, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Incubus and Reebok

message: Is it really appropriate to request a citation regarding an incubus's behavior?
They don't exist so how can you prove or disprove anything on the page?
If I claimed they liked to eat Perrier and twinkies how could you prove me wrong?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 156.101.9.1 (talk) 20:40, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not whether it is true or not, but whether it's true that a verifiable source said it. I suggest reading through WP:V for the relevant policy. Aleta Sing 00:25, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

message: -Can an incubus/succubus be homosexual? I’d be really happy if they could, like, come on. Gay demons. That’d be awesome.  Corythasaurus (talk) 04:49, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
