Neressan attitudes towards sexuality

Neressan attitudes towards sexuality are not too dissimilar from that of other Elven cultures (namely High Elven, Wood Elven, even Dark Elven) - their religion itself does not really set the tone for sexual mores, leaving culture itself to do the job.

In the Neressan culture, homosexuality is shunned, but not criminalized. Marriages are monogamous, but men and women alike are permitted to take concubines and lovers, if they are wealthy enough to maintain them. Cousin-marriage is tolerated, and is common amongst immigrants - uncommon among fully nativized people whose ancestors have lived in the country for centuries. Attitudes towards adultery are more lax, though not as much as in the Dark Elven culture. Prostitution is tolerated, though former prostitutes are barred from marrying.
