(From 84 iky to the early second century iky after the arrival of the Telai, often regarded as the trunk branch of humans, the Lilitai displayed profoundly misandrist social behaviour because they did not like the ways in which contemporary Telaian gender roles functioned—even though, by contrast with today's gender roles, they were very muted and almost undetectable. Historians differ on how much this was xenophobia, how much it was an existential crisis over discovering their long-sought role models violated the Lilitic sense of independence (especially with concern to their past as slaves in a very male-dominated culture), and how much it was exaggerated by blaming the Telai for the past. As the Lilitai were gradually absorbed into other cultures and lost their national identity, this became progressively less of an issue.)
