My beef with it starts with forcing Earth biology onto a supposed alien species. Normal Moclans are obviously not "male" - they are masculine in presentation, but seem to reproduce more or less like snails (I guess either could lay an egg, but they pick which one of them gets to be the hen.) This difference seems to be totally lost on people, and I don't understand why.

As for the feminines, can they breed with the masculines? No? Then they're a different species. It'd be like some human pooping out a kid that was more chimp than human, and only able to breed with other chimpy kids with the same condition ... only the difference here seems to be that the feminines aren't impaired in any way other than socially ... except for Bortus' comment about Moclan history, and some kind of crisis that resulted in their culture being the way it is ... either way, it's more about racism (or speciesism, if they're mutually reproductively exclusionary). It would be nice to discover more about what Bortus was hinting at; maybe they'll do that later.

Same with Yaphit (who, I guess, will be departing?) - since he's more like an amoeba, he has a parent, and a clone. "Family" words just won't always fit with aliens.

Anyway, Topa was already "corrected" without its consent as a baby. However, birth defects SHOULD be corrected. The question is, is being a feminine Moclan a real birth defect? Or just an evolutionary variant? (A viable one at that, not like, say, having a sea of retards roaming around like a zombie apocalypse. And never mind Flowers for Algernon, that would have been considered a successful experiment that just needs perfecting.)

Basically, what I'm trying to say is that Moclans are actually simply not sexually dimorphic (or are hermaphroditic) and simply present as masculine (not unlike DragonBall's asexually-reproducing Namekians.) This isn't about sexism, it's about allowing a new race or species of Moclan to exist.
