The Male's Sonnet

The Male’s Sonnet

In this world:
You’re born to a sole mother--
Cared for then hurled
To an uncle or brother;
They may take you under their wing,
Teach you a trade, take you to hunt.
But your birth, here’s the thing,
Did not the village want.
You may inherit their plot,
Thank them for being a good guy,
But you take what they got
And shed a tear when they die.
So you work hard to provide and silently cope;
And watch mother proclaim her newest born “Hope.”

Playing OHOL optimally is like cosplaying a cactus: stand still and don't waste the water.

Re: The Male's Sonnet

i prefer to play as male,
no fuss with babies in most inconvenient moments, as male one has a chill time, as female it's just stressful

also as female the appreciation of the people around is not good enough to compensate for the inconveniences & limitations, i had to be as heartless as to leave my kids die to fulfill my freedom as female & to do what i want

& as long there is no family tree it's useless anyway to be Eve

i would really like some sort of improvement regarding carrying of babies, basket on head, or pregnancy, or baby sling,
or limitation to where & when getting a baby, something !

btw i suicide now as baby when i see a girl named Hope,
& in general i prefer to suicide if i am a baby girl because of the reasons mentioned tongue

Breeze,

That's a solid point.  After thinking a lot about it, I'm loving the male role more than the female-- especially in a village filled with eager, hardworking people.  I use those lives to explore without the hassle of giving birth to a random baby in the wilderness.
