I think part of the trouble we might be having is that we are trying to stuff cat-people into a human cultural view. Among humans its considered bad for people to be promiscuous, at least in most cultures. Cats however do not share that view point. They go into heat and they go off and find a likely bed-buddy for a few minutes to half an hour.

Its more likely that both tribes are promiscuous, especially as Allgivenover noted, males are rare among the Moonkitties. They wouldn't pair up monogamously at all. I am sure there are exceptions, like in very tiny families where the head female lays claim to a particular male. Larger extended families would have a pool of males and the females would take one as the need or fancy arises. The males on the other hand would be trying to make themselves look better than the other males in the lot to get their genes passed on (just like in every other species - except maybe fish, dunno about them).

I kinda liked the OP's sociology write up, but I have to agree that it doesnt really fit. It might fit with the Sunkitties though.

As for or not making up stuff to fill in the gaps, that's a debate from another thread that was beat to death and got no where. Some people are alright with fannon, others think it's the road to hell lined with dubious good intentions. It's just a topic where both parties have to agree to disagree. Especially since the naysayers are not being forced to abide by said fannon.

ANYWAY... I'd be more inclined to pass on this idea that Moonkitties are puritan with their sexuality - and while I've said before that I haven't seen any moonkeeper prostitutes like I have Sunseekers, really its hard to tell one from the other sometimes.

That's my ten gil... *goes back to watching anime*

PS: We weren't given a "right" but SE hasn't come out and said that making up lore for our own enjoyment is against TOS. As long as someone isn't trying to make up stuff and for oithers to go along with it, it's not really your place to tell them they can't do it either.

*really goes back to watching anime this time*
