Then you arent TALKING about male and female in the human sense.
The question as posed hadno suggestion tha this was anythign other then
humans you were playing..
Oh and btw, why can't FEMALES be the large agressive ones and MALES be the
small, long lived ones? Frnakly it soudsn to me like your book did nothing
mroe then exaggerate and cannonize in "species" the prevailing myths about
males and females already existant in western society.
It probably would have offnded me therefor, too.
IMO ofcourse.
