Editing Nomaien (section)

==Reproduction==
Nomaien women don’t reproduce easily. It’s rare for a woman to have more than two children. Back when they were still nomads moving from watering hole to watering hole, it became clear to them that love between a man and a woman was becoming rarer as the years passed. The women were finding it easier to find love among their own gender. Marriage was becoming less frequent. This came to the attention of the Queen. The end result of this was the present system. When a woman decides to have a child, she finds a suitable man and they come to an agreement. Sometimes they marry if they find that they like each other enough. Most often, they stay together for a time agreed upon. For reproduction, they seek the other gender; for love, they most often look within their own. This holds true for males and females. Among the royalty of the planet, marriages are required and are often arranged. When a Nomaien marries, it’s for life.

The women have vastly greater appetites for food than the men do, though why is a secret they keep to themselves.
