    Well us dergs have very long life-spans naturally and the problem with this idea of everlasting life or even very long life that no one ever really thinks about is that the probabilities that misfortune will befall you don’t go away or even really go down once you have it. That means that even though it seems unlikely to be crushed by an air-conditioner falling out of a window, or fall down the stairs, or choke to death on your food, the probability of these things happening when given enough time approaches 100%, even the very unlikely ones.

    So while you might think something like this is awesome unless it also grants you the invulnerability to survive the catastrophes you will encounter in the future or cancels out their probability, it’s basically useless, because those will get you likely in a comparable amount of time as old age would.


  • If they’re fish and not mammals would it even make sense for them to have breasts? Like breasts are one of those exclusive to mammals things.

    I mean I’ve seen ones where they have dolphin or dolphin-like tails instead of a fish tail in which case them having breasts makes more sense, but that’s also almost never done and instead they have a fish tail.






  • I think that is a separate circumstance all together.

    How so? They are a shapeshifter, I don’t think intersex forms would be off limits if gender swapping and animals/non-humans are fine.

    The whole point of gender identity is that there is no guaranteed link between a person’s sex and gender.

    Even more so with shapeshifters since they can change sex and form at will, like changing an outfit.

    A person with multiple sex characteristics could identify as nonbinary and that is completely valid.

    Still true, it’s just a bit different with shapeshifters because they can change their form in ways most people can’t.
