Heee! I know, I was cracking up when she said that!
And I'm very glad she didn't say that it would only be a more nurturing society, because I don't belive that it would be for a second. I was also thinking that inverting the hierarchy, like you said, could maybe have something to do with matriarchical societies. But I don't really know much about matriarchical societies, so I'll have to find more info.
Thank you for the book rec! I'm always looking for new things to read so I'll definitely check that one out, I'm intrigued :D
