One might say they're the real sluts of that world, but there are those who think sex is the ultimate expression of love (beyond just pleasure), and others who find no problem with discussing it openly, much like a hobby, and to increase knowledge in their own sex life. The Merrow here are portrayed as romantics; they can't stop fantasizing about sex and true love, much like a little girl fantasizes about being a princess and waiting for her knight in shining armor to take her away.
We look upon sex as sort of a vulgar thing to do behind closed doors. But we didn't always think like that. To these creatures, sex is as pure and innocent as holding hands. They've given themselves entirely to their husbands, even the ability to continue living. They want for nothing but the purest expression of passion and happiness between them and the men they love, bathing in each other's presence, smiling, and making their hearts beat as one.
I could spend entire days in bed just listening to my girl's breathing. This hits so close to home, I've got to say, this may was well have become my new favorite work of his. Very beautiful.
