[QUOTE="Lylandra, post: 7139130, member: 6816692"] This is not too hard to come up with, even if we *only* use reproductive models we find on earth and don't go crazy alien. - Plant-like hermaphroditic people who develop a great amount of seeds. They use "kindergardens" - large fields which are tended by gardeners. These people don't really form bonds with their "biological" children and one a small fraction of the seeds really grow into something that may live - A bee-like people who has three genders: queens, drones and workers. They form "states" and tend to lead peaceful lives inside their "state family" as all workers and younger drones are basically siblings who descend from the same mother. The queens have one (long or short) fertile phase in their lives during which they mate with drones and lay a huge amount of eggs. Queens are fierely protected before and during their fertile phase, but even after that "elder queens" are respected counselors to their people. - a fish-like undersea people where male and female of the species do not only mate for life, they basically become one mind, flesh, body etc. at the act of mating. Only in this state they are able to produce offspring. Of course, finding the right partner would be a central part in each one's life. [/QUOTE]
