    So much of our real-world sexual behavior presupposes the fact that one’s physical form is difficult or impossible to change that it’s easy to forget that in a fantasy setting with transformation (or even just illusion) magic only personality would matter. Everything else can be fixed by Alter Self.

      Even if the male:female ratio is off you’ll just have to get together with one of your bros and flip a coin to decide who’s changing this time.
