ReplyDelete8. A bottle of designer pheromones. Makes the user irresistibly attractive to the opposite sex for 1d10 days.
There's just no reason in this day and age to be injecting heteronormativity. Also, the implied rapeyness of it is just not great in general. I'm sure it was unintentional, no worries, but why not just say it heightens libito or sexuality or whatever, without making explicit claims about gender, and also ideally not making it feasible to be used as a rape thing? I mean if the latter you are doing with intentionality I guess fine, that doesn't appeal to me but I suppose I can see the argument, but definitely the heteronormative part it's just imo not adding anything.
Thanks for pointing this out! Will make changes
DeleteYa np, thanks for hearing me out, and also apologies if I came off overly harsh, but I appreciate you listening regardless.
