Chapter 542 Differential Treatment

At this time, Xia Tian had reopened the live broadcast room and resumed the live broadcast.

Based on the fan base of previous live broadcasts, the current number of viewers in the live broadcast room is very impressive.

The audience witnessed the entire [differential treatment] incident, and most of them saw the reason behind it and began to complain in the barrage.

Isn't this sexism? Females are a precious resource, so they can be allowed in, but males can't.

In an era where there are more people than food, this choice is understandable, but difficult to accept.

[It's been a while since I've seen a livestream. Is it going to be this exciting once things get back to normal? ]

So why do anchors have to go into the city?

In the Beast World, there is indeed very serious gender discrimination.

But this kind of discrimination is different from the Earth in the 21st century. It is not about favoring boys over girls, but favoring girls over boys here.

This is because males are healthier and live longer, but females who are responsible for reproduction are scarce and weak, and many die in infancy.

So, rather than being a form of gender discrimination, it is more of a distribution of resources.

Because females hold the ability to reproduce, they are considered a precious resource.

If it is a female like Xia Tian who is considered infertile by the witch doctor, she is not a precious resource and will be expelled from the tribe without hesitation.

As for males, there are a lot of them. They can hunt when they are young, but when they are old and weak, they are destined to be abandoned.

Moreover, polyandry is blatantly practiced on the Beast World Continent, which means that a female can have many male partners, while a male can only be with one female in his life.

This state of inequality has lasted for a long time and there is no way to break it.

Ultimately, it is because productivity in this era is too low, and people can only rely on reproduction to ensure the reproduction of the tribe. Everything must be aimed at reproduction, and all rules are formulated according to this thinking logic.

If productivity cannot develop, people will never be liberated.

Females are trapped in a fertility trap, and males are involuntarily competing with each other just to reproduce offspring.

"I don't need this kind of privilege." Xia Tian decisively rejected the proposal.

It’s not just because of her coming this time, it’s mainly because of Si Ye.

More importantly, the way this male orc looked at her was like a hungry wolf looking at a plate of fat meat, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

"You..." Xin Rui had never seen a female like this who didn't use her privileges, and for a moment she didn't know what to say. "Well, since you don't want to, then there's nothing I can do. I'm just following the rules, so you guys take care of yourself!"

After saying that, he returned to his guard post and didn't seem to intend to pay any more attention to Xia Tian and the others.

Xia Tian was happy to be alone and pulled Si Ye outside. "Let's go first and find a place to stay. We can discuss the rest later."

She had a hunch that Dongfang City was a place where she would definitely come back.

And they were invited in respectfully, instead of being rejected at the city gate, or just sneaking in by using their female identity.

"Okay, then we'll stay outside the city first." Si Ye naturally followed Xia Tian's words. "You can do whatever you want. If you want to come into the city, I'll find a way. It's not difficult."

Xia Tian shook her head and said, "It's okay, we will go in."
