Tal, Nilly is with me now, and she is asleep on the couch.
Well, then, this is a day I'll feel good to be me.

Nilly was planning on going to krav maga today, Tal, but instead will be going on Wednesday.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I don't think that Mal thinks it's odd for a woman to be a mechanic or a soldier, probably because of his upbringing. On core worlds there are probably few if any gender-assigned jobs. But on frontier planets, things tend to fall into more old-fashioned ruts. Women cook, wash, tend the babies, men hunt, build, tend the fields. There would be crossover, sure. But probably, the more primitive the conditions, the more stereotypical the role, and the more difficult it would be to step outside that assigned role. There would be either laws or public opinion against it. Possibly religious rules.
So, Mal having been raised on a fairly well-established world (canNOT remember the name of the planet. Sorry), not one just immediately terraformed and populated, I'd imagine gender roles would be defined, but not as stringently as on more primitive, or newer, planets.
I am, I realize, talking completely out of my ass. But I can't sleep and it amuses me to spin out these impressions I've held, based on my own experience and expectations, nothing more.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I meant to go to sleep, but I wandered back by and saw krav...
Nilly hasn't been to krav maga yet, Tal. Her schedule got moved around at the last moment this morning, so she'll be coming to class on Wednesday.
