if it makes you feel any better:
they’re referencing the many species which are born as one sex but can change sexes later in life. many fish species are like this, where they’re all male or all female and then one fish in an area will morph into the other sex. although tbf I’m not aware of any shark species which have sexual metamorphosis traits
and this is a spoiler but it’s based on the mythos of the island with the tribes being descendants of sharks.
Okay okay!! That makes a lot more sense and it does make me feel a bit better! I still don’t like the implications of bottoming automatically being equivalent to being effeminate but I think I’ll try to read it again
Till the “if you take on a women’s role during your first sexual experience then you evolve into a women.” WHAT??? I’m sorry but I don’t like the implications of that at all.
