[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 4378624, member: 22779"] No, it's some people think too much about it. Let's take the whole "brilliantly colored" bit for a second. What if I want to play a male (assuming males are to get the colors) rogue? Does having yellow and purple splotches affect my hide checks? Seems like it should. Trying to be sneaky while dressed like a Vegas showgirl would be tricky. Upthread someone pointed to the whole dwarf female beard thing. This is pretty much identical. Same argument different set of glasses. Wyrmshadows - you yourself admit that all of the creatures you point to are not reptiles. You said it yourself - they're reptilian as in look kinda like reptiles, but they aren't reptiles. So, pretty much any amateur biology crap is pointless. I would point out that non-bipedal creatures rarely have visible mammaries (although there are some exceptions). One doesn't have breasts on a horse for example. So, no breasts on dragons makes pretty decent sense if you want to go that way. Now lizard folk? Why not? Why not give them breasts? Heck, SF does it all the time. In the end though, we don't because lizard folk don't feature in a whole lot of art or games. The question of gender simply doesn't come up. [/QUOTE]
