She has very strong ideas about family - ideas that probably sound kind of sexist to you. She believes all dhampirs should train and put in time as guardians, but that the women should eventually return home to raise their children together. But not the men? No, he said wryly. She thinks men still need to stay out there and kill Strigoi. Richelle Mead
About This Quote

Dhampirs and Strigoi are the two races that exist in the world of Gargoyle. Dhampirs are half human, half vampire. Vampires on the other hand are more like humans than Strigoi. Dhampirs and vampires have a kind of symbiotic relationship, with both races living side by side as they both fight together to defeat the Strigoi, who are evil creatures who feed on human blood to survive.

Through this relationship, some dhampirs become guardians, which is a kind of protector for vampires. As guardians, dhampirs can fight and kill Strigoi as well as protect those vampires who remain in hiding and not willing to be seen before the public eye. Dhampirs and vampires also raise their own children together.
