I don't understand what gave you that impression. Just because the tribal structure has the females select only one man - so long as they are not interested in bearing more children further down the line when a new nuhn holds the position - and are expected to restrain any feeling that they may have developed for a non-nuhn, it doesn't mean they are any less like any of the other races in the attraction and sexual aspect; at least I cannot see why it would be suggested otherwise anyways.

It's not as though the females are a nuhn's selection of wines for any evening he feels like drinking. His only true role is to bring offspring into the camp and it would be incredibly unlikely and unwise to impregnate multiple huntresses in a short space of time since that is stealing them from their duties and creating another mouth to feed in some months time.

The way the K tribe here have it work is that a challenging tia must have the support of at least one female before he can make an official challenge against the nuhn. After that it is up to him to earn the favour of further females if inducing multiple births is expected by the elders. Females obviously still have their free will, they make up the majority of any tribes' populations and are incredibly important beyond the aspect of child-bearing so assuming otherwise would be incredibly odd. The only difference between their relationships and "normal" ones that other races have is that they must accept the nuhn's obligation to be a polygamist where possible(assuming that term extends to partners and not just wives).

As far as I have seen, in no-way, shape or form have miqo'te been suggested as more hedonistic than anyone else.

Anyways, that's just assuming tat any of the above was what brought you to that conclusion.
