"Now that you mention it, it is rather strange," Rui admitted. "I would have expected that therianthropes mimic the dynamics between the sexes in the species that they bonded with… but they're patriarchal for the most part."
There were many species, like the mantis, hyenas, and spiders, that were biologically heavily skewed towards females. In two of those species, the females even ate the males after copulation.
He was relatively certain that therianthrope women did not eat therianthrope men in the clans that specialized in these species.
It might have been due to the fact that, despite their species being patriarchal, therianthrope men were simply too much stronger than women for that to matter. But then it begged the question, what about the clans that bonded with species where the female half was already innately disadvantaged in many ways, such as the dolphins, lions, or even more extreme examples?
"They must have it really, really rough."
