Description

Here we see two extremes of the assertive/receptive spectrum of yinglet males, demonstrating the traits that define their "types."

Masculine/assertive:
-Long limbs and lean build; lithe dodginess is considered better for fighting, as it does them a lot more good an a bit of extra strength.
-Thick forearms/forelegs, indicating they're not fragile. Which is important, as a good 75%+ of all injuries they sustain are related to breaking those long, thin parts.
-Long and pointed snout, ears and tail, and a thin-furred appearance.
-Long, straight eyebrow-whiskers, considered better for hunting/tracking, although it really just means they get hit in the face slightly less.
-Long shelltooth, and a dental configuration with lots of teeth, which allows them to inflict more damage with a bite than the standard yinglet tooth-style. It's become a very popular trait among matriarchs to breed into their enclaves.
-An aggressive, fighty attitude. Often accompanied by a sense of adventurousness, and a desire to range far from the enclave in search for things to hunt and scavenge.

Feminine/receptive:
-Short limbs and a stocky, softer-bodied build.
-Thinner forearms, a shorter and rounder snout, as well as shorter and rounder ears. Thicker fur overall, and more pronounced tufts.
-Shorter, curved and/or curly eyebrow-whiskers, which are apparently delightful for other yinglets to look at, despite their limited practical uses.
-A shorter shelltooth and significant tail-tuft, both considered aspects that females possess.
-More preening, socially-oriented attitude, and a tendency to want to spend most of their time close to the enclave.
