The dreaded gender (?) update… The Enithian genders are more of a caste system, only ever being labeled as ‘gender’ because of how it affects sexual relationships.

And it’s a really bad system! It only has advantages for a handful of very powerful people- it’s really just a way to control how people can act and work. But it is the standard on modern-day Enith, and while it’s not held nearly as strictly on other planets, it has become the standard for the galaxy at large.

#The majority of jobs that don't really fit into one category are shoved into whatever fits best #like entertainers are usually shoved into the steward class.#little bird worldbuilding #greetings from enith #my art #speculative biology #spec bio #xenobiology #worldbuilding #and while it's not actually a category 'unemployed' is a thing. It's super abnormal thing to Enithian society and most of the people who #don't or can't fit into any of the categories are pretty much shunned.#Like a lot of people who leave Enith are just people going to planets that offer unemployment benefits.#but also unemployment is what subsistence farmers are grouped into? So it's just a completely nonsense thing made as an excuse to #look down on the 'undesirables'
