All the lore says is that they gain the right to breed, and that there's about 50 or so females to every breeding male.Actually you miss understood me. I'm not making any assumption. I know full-well that Nuhn does not entitle you, but grants you the potential right to breed.
That doesn't mean they run around acquiring as many females as they can manage for a supposed harem type situation. This automatic negative light some of us are casting on Seeker culture comes from our own cultural norms regarding sexuality. This is roleplay though, on a totally different, fantastical and importantly fictional world. It's alright to apply a more neutral sociological perspective to them because of it.
Which is why I -asked- the question in the first place. That kind of roleplay doesn't suit me. My question in the start was meerly what the majority of roleplayers actually did and how they depicted Miqo'te.
Personally, I would rather not roleplay the whole Nuhn thing, but that is me personally. I'm not judging or condemning anyone else for their choices. I just wanted to know the general population's stance on the matter so I could better make a decision on which race I will be playing.
I know I personally don't have to do the Nuhn roleplay, but I would rather play a Hyur if most of the Miqo'te male roleplayers are going to be doing something of the sort. However thus far it seems that is not the case.
Again, thank you everyone for your opinions.
