Sex is a healthy and important part of Femarctic society, with socio-sexual maturity occurring at or around the age of thirteen. Femarctic society’s emphasis on youthful instruction ensures that safe practices prevail, even during the breeding castes’ twentieth year, a period when sex amongst the femmar is at its most unbridled.
Common Sexual Activity
- Group encounters, or encounters involving three to four participants, are the norm.
- Though frequent, one-on-one sexual encounters are considered salacious.
- Continuous one-on-one encounters with the same citizen are stigmatized.
- Solitary masturbation is employed throughout a citizen’s life, and self-pleasure is an integral part of group encounters involving Hizaki.
Sex occurs on an erotic couch, a large, round, waterproof piece of furniture that resembles bedding used by helovx. The erotic couch plays a significant role in sexual encounters, providing a versatile platform for group sexual activities. Most residences come with a private room reserved for the erotic couch, while bluzsh and garden clubs carry multiple couches sanitized daily. Rules and Defined Values
All femmar engage in non-sexual displays of affection, like kissing on the hands, lips, and face or hugging. Bizaki, Subaki, and Zaxiri most often display physical gestures of kindness within their caste.
- Internal-caste taboos placed on non-sexual displays exist among Hizaki and Marixi. Though they embrace socially, Hizaki do not kiss in public, not even their bonded spouses. Marixi do not kiss or hug one another, nor do they engage in (or admit to engaging in) sexual activity with other Marixi.
Non-sexual nudity outside the home, paxicol, or bluzsh, is taboo.
Bizaki and Marixi tend to be nude around one another non-sexually, in World Oceans vocations, and in semi-private or indoor social situations. In contrast, Hizaki are never naked around each other or pod members unless they are hibernating or in the atmosphere of the bluzsh. Zaxiri expose themselves via revealing clothes, while Subaki never appear nude in public or wear revealing attire. Like a Hizak, a Subak is naked only when bathing, hibernating, or engaging in sexual intimacy.
