Ideals

Beauty Ideals

According to Exodite cultural traditions a woman of worth spends no time labouring, and thusly a common view of beauty has formed among their ilk, that a pale skin, with a strong hair colour is desirable.

Gender Ideals

Their society is traditionally patriarchal, and while this limits the amount of important females in their society, they are still considereed quite liberal among the other mainstream cultures of the mainland.

Courtship Ideals

A marriage is an important tool for any family, so why should one view attraction, and kinship, when one can secure an ironclad alliance by stashing their whims and marrying an appropriate spouse?
love is considered beautiful and useful, but only after duty is done to the family (though a generationbal shift is in progress, and art nowadays romanticizes relationships.)

Relationship Ideals

Exoditai value honesty, and view all relationships as having a senior and a junior partner, a dominant, and a subservient side. Through this phenomeon, a lot of friendships among them are also mentor - student partnerships also.
