** That's not the point! Just because a humans are bad doesn't mean that they don't deserve to have powers. And don't give "We are not human" bull-crap excuse, it has been done to death with the X-Men but for good reasons. As the Morrigan acts basically like Magneto at the season final. Being human is not about their biological systems or D.N.A., to be human is about knowing the differences about right and wrong, and doing that that they good or bad. And like you said, THEY FEED OFF HUMANS!!! I think that gives humans the right to be afraid of them. Trick is excused of this because he does good. But Bo's type of Fae should never be taken lightly, she's a succubus fyi a demon rapist damn it! How come nobody mentions a incubus on the show before? Both incubus and succubus are the same, so no double standards on rape.

***No, being human is largely about biological systems and D.N.A. in a show like this where not every nonhuman creature is a monster. It is very speciesist of you to insist humans trump all other species, that everything has to obey human morals, or that the same morals apply to other lifeforms. Yes, humans have the right to be afraid of Fae. Any prey has the right to be afraid of their predator. Deer are afraid of humans. Humans are afraid of Fae. The Fae were afraid of the Garuda. Different levels of the food chain. And I told you why the Fae would not give humans their powers. Points which you did not address. Succubuses for better or worse are not human and feed on humans to survive. That is a better excuse than humans raping or killing other humans. Is it a good thing from a human standpoint? For most people no. There are other ways to survive without using their powers to violate others. Bo has survived through a combination of feeding on willing Fae and a few humans. The humans she feeds upon are willing and she does not kill them. We do not know enough about other succumbuses to know how they commonly feed. If they feed on willing participates or people that want to sleep with the without killing them and only feed enough to survive I see that as a good compromise that does not violate the human.

** For starters, both the Light and Dark feed off of humans and would not want their prey being able to fight back. Second, calling all of them monsters is a gross oversimplification. Human morality in the strictest sense does not apply to them because they are not human. They feed on humans because that is the way the food chain works and the way Fae biology works. The difference is the Light generally do it only to survive and frown upon killing when unnecessary. Third, the end of Season 3 is the perfect example of why they do not trust humans with their abilities. A human psychopath was worse than any Dark Fae shown so far abused their power. The Dark and Light Fae both exist in small numbers and balance each other out. Humans in the show and throughout history have shown themselves as bad if not worse than the Fae. If they were suddenly to get human powers without the centuries of checks, balances, and disciplines the Fae have developed in all likelihood it would destroy the world. Finally, they do not have the power to alter reality whenever they want. Most Fae only have longevity combined with one or two other powers. The only one able to alter reality is the Blood King and Trick has made it quite clear that he doesn't do it because it never works out the way he intends or without a negative consequence. He ended the war and it cost him his daughter. He used the blood power to save Bo and it awakened the Garuda.

* Why is it a bad thing for humans to magical powers from the Fae? Because we have seen that faes have used their powers for both good and evil purposes, so why cant humans have a edge against the monsters? Both Light and Dark Faes are truly monsters from mythology and folklore that have very little respect for humans, so why do they fear humans at the final two episodes of season 3 when they basically have the powers to alter reality whenever they want to?

* Does anyone else feel the end of 3.03, ''ConFaegon'', was a bit bizarre? We had Kenzi holding off the pigs for an extended period of time with the Staff of Righteousness, and then the moment Bo returns to normal she defeats them on an off-screen CurbStompBattle. Granted, we know she's strong, but if Kenzi fought them for that long without doing any appreciable damage, it's a bit weird that Bo, who's power is seduction, could defeat them so easily.

** The male leader could just take a title that the Dark Fae see as equivalent. Perhaps it's like seeing a kingdom for the first time led by a Queen, and asking what happens if a male ascends to the throne. He just uses a different title for the same office.

Now if she's supposedly named after her grandmother, how does she know that before meeting anyone in her family? Did she just guess her own birth name accurately?
