"Okay, lady werewolves aren't REALLY inherently less than the male ones, that's just the pack applying their b.s. human social rules that are made even worse by the elders who come from a history with worse views of women AND have the strength to back up whatever the hell they want"
Yeah, that's how my thinking went. I figured 'well, since the pack is majority males, they get to make the rules, I'm sure the women would fight back if they had the numbers'....but then one has to wonder about WHY it is women werewolves are so few and WHY the author would want it that way :/
"Wait, what? Female werewolves are expected to be raped if they don't have a mate? Even the children?... Maybe that's just Honey's experience"
WHAT
B.S. *magical obedience* thing that Adam could do from out of no where.
WHAAAT
I'm not even going to BEGIN to get into the race relations of EVERY WEREWOLF being stronger and more dominant than the pesky Native shapechanger.
I didn't think of that, but yeah. Apparently vampires wiped out a lot of the American supernatural species, including walkers like Mercy, and while I guess that's supposed to be the monster version of colonialism...you get the same problem of 'how did vampires manage to take out all the Native American monsters' because it's not quite the same as having two sets of humans and one side having guns, diseases, etc. There are some FIERCE creatures in Native American mythos and I don't know if vampires would be up to taking them all on. Of course, I don't know much about the Mercyverse vampires and I don't know what types of Native American monsters besides walkers were in the Mercyverse America.
