absolute weapon of a woman

I wanted to play a cleric of Eilistraee, because she seems kind of cool you know. Shes the daughter of Lolth (evil dark elf god), but she decided that you know maybe it would be better if the drow were chill actually, especially since she's still technically in the 'dark seldarine' pantheon rather than the normal seldarine. And only women are allowed to serve in her church, which could be a fun thing to work with you know.

But then you get stuff like this:

Which like, ok fine. They dance in the woods naked right. Power to them. BUT THEN IT KEEPS GOING.

Ok, so now its a bunch of women hunting monsters naked? Okayyy, so these women really like being naked while they do their religion. Cool, cool. Oh this section is about their wedding customs. I'm sure there won't be any weird stuff here....right?? (insert that anakin padme meme here). WRONG.

Like ???????

It even specifies that the priestesses (because again, no male clergy allowed) have to wear as little as possible for official ceremonies.

Sigh

I really do love Baldur's Gate 3, but I'm so mad its set in the Forgotten Realms. I do not want to be invested in FR lore god damn it. There are far too many weird sex things. Like, I'm all for weird sex things if done well, but then I look at the drow, and just hmmmm, so much of it is just women doing weird sex things.

Karsus' legacy

please let my dear old man go on a vacation

I understand the "I will die for you" ship dynamic, but what about the "I will not let you die, I will not let myself die- we will, at any cost, survive" kind of couple?
