Remember the episode of TNG where Riker fell in love with someone from an androgynous species, that supposedly "evolved past" the male/female difference for the most part? It would be so fascinating if STO integrated a playable race like that at some point. Another suggestion... I noticed there are at least three races that only allow you to play as a "male" character... but none that have a reversed exclusion. That might be cool. Whatchya think?

Since you asked, my thoughts are that unless you have in mind some unique racial trait or skill, you can probably make something you like with the alien creator and just tell yourself it has no gender.

In case of the Gorn, there might just be no directly visual difference between male and female. Or just be size differences...
Might be true for Lethean and Nausicaan, too, who knows? We've never seen (visibly) female ones. For all we know, the group that attacked Picard was mixed.
If following reptile traits the females of the species could be even bigger, presumably you can't play them as they can't fit into the turbolifts.
But yes I would like to see a much wider choice when it comes to gender and attire, there are already some great creations out there from careful work with the character editor so more options are always welcome.
why not more furries in space
Orions.
Most unexpectedly, this turned into a flame-fest! Closed it goes!. /sigh What flamefestery is this? pwlaughingtrendy
We never saw a female Saurian, Tellarite, or Pakled...but that didn't stop the devs from making female versions of those races...which no one plays might I add...yet KDF got the shaft...Remans got a female, which also wasn't shown.
Yet KDF still gets shafted...
If it's that easy then how hard would it be for them to just add a female option? Wouldn't have to work or design a new model...but would allow them to wear feminine gear.
But how does that work for Lethean and Nausicaan...which were more humanoid?

Also kinda cool, but I prefer mammals

You want the Asari from mass effect, confess!
Since female reptiles tend to be larger, my best guess is that those giant Gorn you see roaming around the First city are in fact the females.
Letheans and Nausicaans look pretty reptilian, other than size, reptilians usually look the same, male or female.
The Saurians might be the exception, albeit they might not be 100% reptilian but something in between reptilian and mammal.
How do Nausicaan look reptilian? Saurians look more reptilian than Nausicaan...Cardassians look more reptilian...
They had no problem with making Saurian females...lets just admit it...them not making female Gorn, Nausicaan, and Letheans is just the first in the long line of shafts for the KDF.
I for one would love a female Nausicaan...
