Are there any female Mudokons?

[Mudokon_Master]

Are there any female Mudokons? How do you guys think they reproduce. I know this is a stupid question, but I have honestly never seen a female mudokon. Now that I think of it ... I haven't seen a FEMALE RACE on Oddworld? Except maybe the non - humanoid races, I really don't know how to tell.

Mudokons live in eusocial environments which is where all offspring come from a queen. Not unlike ants or bees. So technique Abe is neither male or female but asexual.

The only mentioned mudokon queen so far is Queen Sammy; who is, I think, a captive of Vykkers Labs.


For future questions like this I suggest using the Oddworld Questions and Answers thread.

I just did Max's job. I should get paid.

Worker bees are genetically female, and will lay eggs when the hormonal balance of the hive goes awry. So I think we can assume that Abe is male, if not functionally so.

[Dynamithix]

If I don't remember wrong, there are female Clakkerz.

And yes, the only known Mudokon female is the queen, Sam.

[Nath]

And female Grubbs?

[Nate]

And a female outlaw.

I was very disappointed when Lorne told me that Jo Mamma wasn't a drag queen.

[STM]

Ha we've heard it before Nate.

I believe that if anything like bees / ants / wasps, there are mudokon girlies that are simply infertile.

[RyuuFox]

I remember reading somewhere that is it says the mudokins have no sexual organs or something like that
http://www.oddworld.com/firsttenyear...abe_stats.html

So i guess theirs no females :C

[lismati]

They still have penises, normally like human.

Yes there are, as has been stated in almost all of the posts before this one.

It's only a matter of time until someone inquires about Abe's genitals; The general consensus is some form of penis but with no sexual functions.

Eww

if the queen dies who replaces her?
and,by the way:we all know the queen is their mother but who is their father(s)?

[Mudokon_Master]

Wow, that's really interesting ... But there actually ARE female mudokons, native probably, but we haven't seen them yet? All we see are sexless "Male-looking" mudokons who have penises but they don't function? Thats kinda messed up if you ask me.
Thanks guys.

Someone's been going out of their way to spot that shaft. I, for one, haven't yet seen, and hopefully never will, Abe's painus.

Both questions can be answered with one answer. Assuming mudokons are like bees sexual maturity (ability to reproduce) would be reached from a specific diet. So worker mudokons may possibly choose a baby and feed in a certain way so it grows up to be a queen/drone (drones are the father).

As of yet, the most correct answers that can be given from anyone who isn't Lorne would be "We don't know" and "We don't know".

I just pointed your link because somebody asked about mudokons penises, he could missed it in your link, so I dunno why are you angered.

[Stitchlips -X--X-]

maybe theyre... you know... do i really have to say it... are you sure... fine... GAY!!!

[Nate]

Homosexuality implies sexuality. The worker Muds are asexual and thus would not be interested in any sexual behaviour whatsoever, whether with themselves or another hypothetical gender.

[Mudokon_Master]

I believe that is OWNED.

I would really love it if more people could remember this.

I'm sure I remember reading something somewhere that implied that mudokons have drones, who basically exist to breed with and take care of the queen. I could be entirely wrong though.

[Nate]

I believe it's a fan theory based on the comparison to bee societies. I don't recall Lorne & co. ever stating anything on the record about that.

Notice the citation, as well as how bullshit-free Alf is. Note also that Alf provides no information other than that there are multiple of them.

(The citation link is broken, by the way. It has 'reference1I' instead of 'referenceI')

What? I never knew that. I refuse to believe that!! I believe there a Mudokon Queen and only make male ofspring. And females are eaten like larve.

[STM]

Coz that would make a lot of fucking sense! I think Abe being asexual doesn't really matter because he is regularly referred to as a he meaning that he possesses male genitalia amongst other things like well, a male accent.

What if Muds only had drones and queens, with the lesser all being reffered to as male for the sake of our understanding?

[psycoman27]

We can't really tell if he has a male accent, it may sound that way, but it IS Oddworld. Plus, have you heard any character that had a female voice that wasn't the chicken people? Come to think of it, this all may be a lack of female voice actors.
