I don't know, this line seems pretty male-centric:

"It’s as if you are now in the elite of the elites of the monkeys, in the good part of the forest where the trees grow bountiful and most female monkeys would kill to be considered a worthy partner by you, so that they too can perform the successful monkey rituals with you"

Female monkeys can be conscious of the ongoing situation you know ;), plus it could be the other way round as well if not for the centuries of 'I is man, so I is provide for family' prevailing expectations.

Yeah, but the 'you' is clearly referring to a male (who the females are going to 'perform the successful monkey ritual with), so the target is a male reader.

Or Lesbains? As the author, I guess I just wanted to go for the more relatable situation.
