Extreme Specialization

In Chakat stories, and probably a lot of furry stories, it seems that manufacturers are like musicians who can only play one note. It's a wonder that any of them can conduct business, since apparently none of the items seem to be superior to any other. There are no brand names, and anything unique seems to be home made.

Anomalies:


 * Chakats only seem to wear halter tops. Other types of outfits apparently are not widely available, except in the area of lingerie.  This is true even in stories where characters are not required to wear a uniform.
 * Chakat furniture makers must be bored. Everyone sits on mats and beanbag chairs. No one makes furniture specific for Chakats or taurs to straddle or sit upon. Even a furniture maker in the Tales of the Foxtaur Clans story mostly made cabinets and tables.  While there was one piece of furniture for the purpose of copulation, nobody made a regular practice of sitting on it.

Example:

When I came out I noticed that shi had cleaned up the room, fortunately we don’t have much furniture, as we don’t need chairs, there’s just a low table and a couch for guests in the main room and the now destroyed nightstand in the bedroom.-ECLIPSE SAGA By Joe Schoder
