The Galkan race is not male or female. They are treated as males for their appearance, but even the original instruciton manual states they have "no specific gender."

You could release male mithra without messing with the lore TOO much (though it would be weird for all the men of the mithran race to suddenly come out of the closets they're being kept in). The Galka however, it doesn't make any sense.

I don't understand why races with non-human designs and social structures are so taboo. You can't have a non-gendered race because that's somehow sexist or something- it suppresses creativity.

I want a race like Species 8472 on Star Trek Voyager- They have 5 genders. Thattl' never happen though, because anything that doesn't have just males and females will get shot down.
I completely agree with you about the lore not matching and that they would have to make some silly stories up to explain it. I just don't think that's a problem. Hell, just last week we discovered an entire continent and kingdom wrapped in lore that we had no idea existed for 10 years.

I say if charging people $29 to add a continent and all the other crap that goes with it doesn't ruin the lore of the game, then adding some cross dressing galkas and some male cats for a nominal fee won't hurt either. If people wanna pay money for something, then SE should be happy to oblige. I wish people would go on my website and give me new ideas for making money off of them.
