You know, I wonder if we look at human sexual dimorphism and compare it to mythical dimorphism in these games, we might see that politics stops at the humans.
For example, I bet the humans are designed to look pretty similar whether you select male or female.
But if you select a reptilian, or a Felidae, I'd bet the male and female variants are very distinct. Bright colors and hoods on the reptilian females, stockier bodies with horns on the males. Female Felidae are more slender, male Felidae have manes and a larger chest.
I bet that they pretend sexual dimorphism doesn't exist in humans for woke points, but have major sexual dimorphism in non-humans because people still want that.
This would probably be limited to only some species, though. Orcs probably all look the same, so would things that don't have apparent sexual dimorphism to humans like sharks.
