I am looking for physiological terms that distinguish males from females that end in “ate”.
For instance, women ovulate, lactate and menstruate.
Men impregnate.
I’m not sure what use I’m going to make of this.
The only two I can think of that you haven’t already already are gestate and ejaculate.
Perhaps you could write a little play with them.
Her: menstruate, ovulate
Him: ejaculate… IMPREGNATE?!
Her: gestate, lactate
Him: interstate await
Her: REPROBATE!
I was thinking epic poem if there’s enough.
I am also working on a book on slackers, and one theory is that women are natural* literal* busybodies, ie their bodies are always at work as chemical factories, so they are inherently worse slackers than men.
Obviously I haven’t put a lot of deep thought into this.
