We've seen Kon hit on beings that don't look like human beings. I don't think he'd care about something as silly as genital configuration.
Yeah, really not.
I remember food and drink being very communal in high school...which did put us all down with mono at one point.
We were less communal actually at school, partially because we had different tastes, and partially because a couple of us kept getting mono. ^^; But visit anyone at home and you got fed.
Sharing food forms/shows a bond, and feeding people shows care.
You really show this all the time with Martha, but it's nice to see it also mapped onto everyone else. (Some people forget to do that.) Food-sharing is an important social behaviour. Giving someone food shows you care (and Jake keeps feeidng Kon...) and letting someone take your food, as in this lunch scene, also shows you care. Eating with people in a group shows you care: see Kon finally getting people to sit with at lunch, Mel's dinner with her family, and Chase skipping family dinner to eat alone. you show dynamics well with this, and you never, in the story, need to point it out -- but I wanted to talk about it anyway. ;3
Also, I'm a woman in the deep south, so food is kind of central to my social life. I just got all disappointed because my roomie came home and had alrrady eaten. BUT LOOK I COOKED FOR TWOOO!
I can understand that. X3 The polite thing for your roomie to do would have been to eat a little bit of it, or eat some of it later and tell you how awesome it was. ;3
