[QUOTE="Pistonrager, post: 4238609, member: 58724"] There is nothing politically correct in assuming a living sentient being has the ability to propagate or indeed that there are two sexes of each type of creature. The real problem isn't gender equality, it's that some people are stuck in the ways of the past. As such people are uncomfortable with change and the idea that things may be different from the way we like them. God's willy nilly cursing hot chicks? messed up dark cultists that turn people into a medusa for no reason? it makes less sense than a self propagating species. Oh and your reference to the mule is moot, it still had a male and female parent, though they aren't of the same species. So maybe in your world they are god cursed, man cursed or the result of a freaky beholder yuan-ti mating which fully explains it's rarity... I guess the point I'm trying to make is, your knee-jerk reaction of honking about political correctness is a problem, people reacted the same way to the idea of a male succubus(the incubus) and it was a problem then too. I'm not a feminist, and frankly the majority of the feminist movement is utterly retarded in my opinion, but thinking a male of a classicly female creature exists isn't even a stretch, I regularly pretend I have the ability to shoot fire and bees from my hands, but that's my own RPing experience. But feel free to have your medusae spawn however you like, as long as there is a reason for it. Gods or Cultists as long as it's consistent and thematically fits. [/QUOTE]
