I think that it worked well as a plot device in this story particularly because the reaction of Marlix and Urazi were cute.

I think one of the things that makes the sex scenes of both Breeder and Terran so charged is the fact that these men--powerful leaders-- are really exploring their sexuality for the first time, in way that is basically treasonous. It's forbidden and that makes the fact they are doing it anyways that much more profound.
