Sex between the Races Lore?

[TeaTimeBear]

I think it could be possible for them to make a mixed species like what occured in FFXI. Lilisette from there always comes to mind, mixed with both Hume and Elvaan, she was really pretty. All we have ATM would be F'lhaminn who is umconfirmed as being mixed but most agree.. If she was intended for this, then I wish they would have defined the mix even more like Lilisette.

Man... I remember a post from a long time ago that I cannot for the life of me FIND again
But it states that cross-breeds exist, but they are born of the race of one of the two parents. Although, of course, rumor without proof is worth nothing, and I cannot find this proof of mine, so take that as you will.

I shall add my personal thoughts... I think that any of the races could have sex with the others so long as they're careful and creative about it. However, crossbreeding depends heavily on the genetic makeup of the two races. For example, a Hyur and an Elezen could have a child, but a Hyur and a Miqo'te cannot.

Something like "sex" is a very possible concept. On the other hand the actual breeding might not be possibility due to simple genetic reasons.

Of course this is all speculation, as especially Hyurs, Elezens and Miqo'tes are very alike with each other. Which could indicate having almost identical genetic structure.

SE did confirm/canon that the races -can- have "mixed" kids.
My only beef with that is, how do you make a half Lala, half anything else?

@ Ramira; Hyurs, Elezen and Miqo'te are that alike to you?
I find Roegadyns more closely resemble Hyurs and Elezen than Miqo'te do.
(Highlanders are about the size/build to be mistaken as Roegadyns, and this can be used derivatively among Midlanders... or other races...?)
It's the (shape and location of) ears and the tail that I don't think Miqo'te are that genetically close to any other race.
Between Hyurs, Elezen and Roegadyns, there's just the body size, some portion differences, and the pointy/roundy-ness of the ears.
(Everything in this post is IMO, and just my 'two cents'.)

Silly thought here...
Lalafells maybe evolved from Meerkats or hamsters?

I always thought that Tarutaru, due to their brown noses, were more like Koalas. Lalafells living in tunnels though, is very unlike koalas. Maybe wombats!

Actually, I've wondered if Miqo'te and Roegadyn might not be distantly related...As different as they are in general size and shape, there's something very 'catty' about Roe facial features.

Couldn't help myself.

Well if it is true that the different races can produce offspring with each other (thus proving they are indeed different races of the same species), then the fact that certain races show a lack in population and genders must mean there is some underlying genetic function at work preventing it, such as with male miqo'te. Otherwise a female miqo'te could reproduce with males of other species (or vice versa) to increase the male population. So, in a way, we have to assume with miqo'te that the Y chromosome doesn't pair well with the X, and only happens rarely, and underlying genetic fault within the race regardless of their partner's race.

Interracial romance? I got the original for you right here: http://youtu.be/NJT55T_nqss?t=1m31s

I ship it. And I am not ashamed.

(I started it at a cute point but if you dial the time back a little you can see how elated she is when she jumps into his arms. Nuff said.)
