O Ye Great and Powerful Ferne!

When dalamud and consequently bahamut exploded onto eorzea the residue formed into liquid people (like terminator 2) that became the new races.

This is canon. You are welcome. Have a nice day.

How come we haven't seen anything of these apart from a sketchy concept art from ages ago.? Why do they never answer questions about them? Whats going on?

It's not very interesting but I can't say I would disagree with them. These genders should have been available from the start when it would have been no issue.

@Thebard They have shown a pic of a female highlander in the last live letter, she was the one in the Coliseum gear since I guess they haven't finalized their starting equipment yet.

Well, they explained the monster resize through story, I don't see why we can't have a reason for them being around now. Female Rogadyn where apparently pretty rare, why not have it so that the energy from the Meteor event caused the ratio to be more even causing more female births, male Miquote got over their shyness when the world was in serious danger, and female highlanders had enough of having to stay at home and letting the men have all the adventures.

Both male Miqo'te and female highlanders have a special reason for them not being around. Highlander female there very little of them around and they don't end up leaving the house much so it does not risk them losing more female and then not being anymore highlander in the world. The miqo'te male are just don't want to leave the house and fight there i guess pussy cats about fighting too now.

Now Female Roegadyn i think it's just a oversight old team just did not know how to add a Female Roegadyn without making it look to ugly that my idea on that one.

More than likely you'll find Ferne in the Feedback > Localization forums. Better chance of a bite there. It's not to say that he's not here, but the more places the merrier.

See, that's the point I was trying to make: "I believe the existing reasons are awful, full of BS and they deserve being removed from the game's history".

Sorry if I wasn't more clear.

Well, sorry but that's what they are. Meteor didn't rewrite history, but we have new sexes now so we may as well have a simple explanation as to why and move forward.
