Gender locked race?

[Bonbori]

I have been called the goddess of nonsense.

You will now know why!

Upon my holy logic the very world lies in balance.

AND NOW THE SCALES WILL TIP!　リーゾン　ブレーカ！

So what if... Some or even all of the Viera we have already seen were male?
I mean the Dramaturge said that male and female Viera are indistinguishable until puberty but... he has no idea just how distinguishable they are after, does he? Maybe their dimorphism is something so subtle and hidden that a cursory inspection still wouldn't be able to tell them apart? DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNN!

...

On the other hand, it could be as simple as them not having finalised the assets by the time the preview footage was getting recorded. I guess we might get closer to an answer tomorrow since almost inevitably the question of bunboys will pop up in the Q&A. And then there's about 50% chance of getting teased/trolled and probably made to wait till Tokyo for the real answer.

Hmm... Males with breasts and sensual, feminine attire eh?
I'm sure it would have an interested consumer base.
However, it would certainly be a big, controversial move that might not work out for them in the end.
When I see companies try to start being "inclusive", they usually get bitten by the people they are trying to include for not including some other identity. By definition, there is no limit to the possible identities that may be assumed, from what I've been lectured to about the subject, so it's actually impossible to account for them all.
That being said, I wouldn't be against the concept, but plenty others would be if both male and female actually are the same asset. I already design my character to be a female that looks as male as I could make her.
