Poor Eowyn, friendzoned by Aragorn.

Personally I’ve always found Eowyn to be a lot more attractive than Arwen, but then I do have different tastes in women to the majority (just as I seemingly have different tastes in everything else to the majority).

Personally, I would call this a no-wrong answer scenario. Both lookswise and personality wise. Politics does play a role too. I suppose for me, Liv Tyler's voice is the tie-breaker.

If Aaragon married Eowyn, would their children be the heirs to Gondor and Rohan or did the King of Rohan have a living male heir? I don't remember.

It was pointed out on a fan theory Youtube channel Arwen would have been the legal owner of ALL Elven treasures left behind in Middle Earth.

As someone who has read the books I think that whole arwen vs Eowyn dynamic makes more sense. In the books, Eowyn was in love with Aragorn but he didn't really reciprocate it at all. He was in love with Arwen. The movies made Aragorn basically lead Eowyn on which was stupid. In the books Eowyn knew that Aragorn loved someone else. The books also give Eowyn much more character development as a whole. In the movies Eowyn literally exists to be a side character who is a potential love interest of Aragorn. Whereas the books Eowyn is a noble heroine/leader who is fighting for her people.

Eomer was Eowyn’s brother (hence his grief at what he thought was her death in Return of the King), which meant after Theoden’s son Theodred was killed in The Two Towers, Eomer would have been the male heir. If Eowyn married Aragorn (or anyone else for that matter), Eomer would have become king. In actual fact Eomer may well have become king at the end of Return of the King anyway if the Rohirrim prioritised male children over female in the line of succession as most royal lines today and throughout history have done (which is likely given we only see kings of Rohan and no queens other than the king’s spouse).

Well to be fair in the films she is still a noble heroine fighting for her people, at the Battle of Pelennor Fields she charges in with the rest of the Riders, kills the Witch King and avenges her uncle, but I get what you’re saying. I haven’t actually read the books all the way through, that’s on my to-do list.
