Honestly, I don't understand how LKH reconciles the image of a working world with one where everyone is constantly dragged around by their balls/ovaries.
Seriously, the mind boggles because, well, all the scenarios you just pointed out. I like having a lot of consequences, inconveniences, and weaknesses for supernatural creatures to balance out their powers and advantages, especially embarrassing and non-romantic ones, but in this case it's just dumb because it's only used for Anita get sexed up rather than explored in any meaningful way (for instance, job loss and rape), and while it is presented as identical to how real lions are, I'm pretty sure it's NOT how they function in the slightest.
