There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.
I think most species mate or seek sex for the act of pleasure. Its how the mating instinct drives them to copulation.
Especially in males. Afteral. Its not like they are even aware of the connection between mating and cubs etc.
Its a very powerfull instinct. So sadly a lot a lot of intraspecies violence is caused by attempts to force or resist mating.
That being said. A lot of people like to project sexual narrations on these sorts of events to process our species own obsession on the matter.
In reality Gingerella was more likely just venting frustration where she really shouldn't. And the PCMales are still on edge. They are likely in the middle of a take over after all.
