Shinzoka Gender Disparity

The Shinzoka Gender Disparity is a rising issue among the Shinzoka due to the recurring trend of a rising female population. While not inherently wrong on its own, in a traditionalist society where monogamy is prevalent it causes there to be a significant shortage of males. This is not helped at all by the Shinzoka's isolationist nature, which in turn causes Krawvill to receive few visitors and even fewer immigrants.

Social Impacts
While few outsiders visit Munjang-Îue from the Mainland of Tsominku, even fewer Shinzoka visit Tsominku from Krawvill. The sole exception to this trend is the Kagero-Kiza organization, who serve as eyes and ears for the rest of their society. It has also led to a cultural trend among the Krawvillzé that male Shinzoka are destined for greatness, and as such, most members of the Grandmaster Council are male.

Naturally, because of the gender disparity, the Kagero-Kiza is an all-female organization. While part of the group's purpose is in fact to help the isolationist Shinzoka keep up with the rest of the world, another reason for its founding is to help send more women off into the rest of the world, reducing the demand for more of a male population.

Because of low birth rates and that Shinzoka are a recessive racial trait, it is popularly believed that male Shinzoka will eventually die out completely. The race as a whole, however, is in no danger of being eradicated, since it is still possible for female Shinzoka to be born from mixed-race parents. However, this does foreshadow that there will likely come a time, as soon as the 189th Age or sooner, where the Shinzoka will be a female-only race. With the recent overthrow of Krawvill by Krippa in the late 182nd Age, this event might happen sooner than previously predicted.

Origins
It is unclear when this actually became an issue. Whether it has been an issue since the Shinzoka evolved from the original Vartiz, or if it has simply been a chromosomal adaptation that developed over the ages, but whatever the case, about 64% of Shinzoka born are female as of the 182nd Age, and any born with Zaderism are almost always female.

Skeptics claim that this was a curse put on them by the Jalenga sometime around the 181st Age during their great war, but this theory primarily stems from the superstition surrounding the mysterious and now-exterminated entities. This theory has risen and fallen many times throughout history, but it fell into rather formidable prominence after the Jalenga nearly exterminated the Shinzoka near the end of the war.
