Summary
Sheer masculinity might be half the reason Raphael has trouble following the leader. On some biological level, being the biggest, heaviest monster around might just *feel* like it ought to make him the defacto 'alpha.' But then Red Turtle's strange stomach pains persist for over a week, leading Donatello to conduct an ultrasound to see if it's cancer...
It's not cancer.
The remarkably unsexy fiction is inspired by the real life science of turtles. Like how a turtle's sex is determined! Spoiler alert: It's a lot more wibbly wobbly than in mammals, and doesn't even use XY chromosomes.
