3.0

This story was just so strange that I had to finish it. I liked the concept behind the story with the reversal of roles (male/female; rich/poor). It's easy to see the discrimination in the world through this viewpoint. However, a lot of things could have been executed better. For one, if the beginning gave the reader a sense what the story was about, rather than seemingly mindless chatter about fluids. Granted, it's listed as satire, but world building should have been introduced to readers earlier to give them a sense of setting. A lot of times, the story felt more corny than humorous.
