First, let's take a look at the blue-haired lion monster and queen of the Black Rooster CountryMarriage。This lion monster not only usurped the throne of the king, but also usurped many of the king's wives and concubines. However, inWu ChengenIn the description, this lion monster and the queen and princess did not happenthings. To prove it,Wu ChengenThree verifications were scheduled. The first time was when the prince asked his mother personally, and the queen replied, "Three years ago it was warm and warm, and three years later it was as cold as ice." The pillow asked him earnestly, and he said that he was old and decrepit! This reply showed that the lion did not offend the woman, so that the prince did not do itMarriageReappraisal; The second time it wasGuanyinHe confirmed: "You can't defile her." He's a gelding lion. ”GuanyinUse this reason to prove that the lion monsters did not defile women; The third time wasZhu BajieKissing the lion's thigh confirmed that the lion monster had been castrated and could not have sex.

The same,Golden RetrieverWith the Golden Holy Queen'sMarriageIt didn't happen eitherthings.

For example,Zhu BajieWith Miss Gao'sMarriageThere is sexual contact in the relationship. AlthoughZhu BajieIt's a monster, but he's in with Miss GaoMarriageI had sex for a while. However, inWu ChengenThere is no reference to this paragraphMarriageof sexual morality, but rather portrays this passage in a natural wayMarriage
Another example is that of the white-faced fox with the king of the bhikshu kingdomMarriage。Although in this paragraphMarriageThere is a clear sexual relationship in it, butWu ChengenRather than portraying the relationship as disgusting bestiality, it gives a feeling of envy. This point has been pushed to the extreme of idealization in "Strange Tales". These facts tell us that sexual contact in shemale marriage is not necessarily against human ethics, nor does it necessarily affect human sexual morality.
