| Jun 19 at 20:55 | comment | added | Kirt | @Jack I also suspect that stereotypes of human behavior are part of the humor, but that is speculation, and I am trying to address the question at face value first and foremost. As a target for future searches, it may be found by someone who is solely and genuinely interested in how the game represents menopause. | |
| Jun 19 at 20:52 | comment | added | Kirt | @KorvinStarmast Thank you for both realizing my mistake and your efforts to correct it. I made a few more changes based on you and Jack bringing this to my attention. With respect to who the joke is on, I don't think it is clear. The line between PC and player is always blurry, and in my experience, when PC's make jokes about other PC's in-game, it is often a way for players to tease other players in the social meta-game. | |

| Jun 19 at 19:47 | comment | added | Jack | This is a great answer, but I think you misread the question slightly (or maybe I do). I believe the female half-elf character in question is not the OPs, but another player's. Not clear to me exactly what the joke is; but I think your last paragraph may be near the mark, only the female half-elf character (and player) is the target, and I suspect it has less to do with the actual ability to bear children than stereotypes of human behavior. | |
