Male

In Yuriban philosophy and practical life, a male is an unusual species of female with external genitalia. Due to the unusual native reproductive method known as memetic exchange, males are not compatible with females; they are for all intents and purposes different species, not different genders. Obviously, this means that they are considered an entirely seperate memetic grouping as well.

Males are not native to the island of Yuriba; the few that exist on the island are all immigrants and are often regarded as freaks of nature. Native thought generally believes that males are able to produce with one another memetically; the question of how incubation would be handled without the presence of a uterus has not arose primarily because the assumption that all living individuals are capable of supporting further life is completely true in the Yuriban context. To date there have been no recorded instances of male-male reproduction.
