Yeah but that semi-makes sense in that case Atik, as those are flesh and blood creatures: I can ignore that there. It's when it's a race that builds itself out of stone and magick that has me confused why there needs to be a second gender at all.Perhaps I'm confused, but I was under the impression that Mogu were a flesh and blood race that learned to turn stone to flesh and vice-versa. See:
Here
.
Plus, their models are based on Draenei.
Plus, their appearances are based on Chinese depictions of lions, who are mammals.
Edit: And I suppose I could, Rank. Still not convinced Jaina is beyond redemption. I finished the Pandaria Campaign questline, and I mainly saw Jaina porting folks into the Violet Hold and
Silver Covenant
elves and Stormwind troops killing people.

From what it sounds like, the Mogu are another of the Crafter races, and they are similar to the Tol'vir in regards to how their skin looks. But from what they've been saying about them, with the whole moving spirits from stone to stone body, I think they are meant to be a non-flesh race.

MAYBE, All I know is that I got a score to settle with Vereesa, and Jaina, as far as I can care, can go to hell. At the very least I hope she is punished to some degree. She just took an unilateral desicion on an organization that is democratic. I highly doubt ALL of the kirin tor is behind her. Elves have lived in dalaran for over 2000 years, aided in its construction, and helped defend it on the nexus war. Other members of the kirin tor have lived in perfect harmony with the sunreavers and I'd find it hard to believe that just because one emotionally unstable woman says they are ALL traitors (without any proof) they'd all buy it.
ONE sunreaver betrayed her trust (and he was no longer a sunreaver when he did, notice how the other mages helping him maintain the portal are SILVERMOON mages, not sunreavers) that doesn't mean the rest of the sunreavers, much less the CIVILIAN population of blood elves in dalaran were in any way associated with what just happened.
This is more or less the equivalent of what the US did after pearl harbor, incarcerating every single japanese citizen on the US. Except jaina is worse, she killed elves bro', again you dind't saw this because you did the horde version, but in the alliance version, she ports to the violet citadel and BANG, doesn't even bothers to asks any questions, she just oneshots 3 elves like they're animals. And then forced the others to fight by preventing them to leave the city peacefully.
She's fallen from grace for me, and moved from second favorite character in the game, to just behind garrosh on my s**t list.

I'll have to confirm this but...... I think there's 2 types of Mogu, those made of flesh and those made of stone, I don't think they are ALL made of stone. Maybe those female mogus (who seem to be bosses for the new raid) are a trio of statues reanimated by their magic? I know I killed some mogu on the jade forest who were very much made of flesh (even if their hair and eyebrows were of stone)

Cause they were infected by the curse of flesh; we haven't really seen any evidence that the Mogu were affected or not at this point...like I said, during the questing in Beta, I don't recall seeing any flesh and blood Mogu while running around.

Worship the Old Gods, folks! After all, it's only thanks to their so-called 'Curse' you can get laid today!

When was it ever stated that Mogu were a crafter race?
They shove souls into statues to bring them to life. Statues =/= machines. And it has never been stated that all Mogu are statues.

'Protectors' of a land, able to shape new races, the fact that their are bodies are stone like, they do resemble the other Forger/Crafter races the Earthen, the Vrykul, the Tol'vir and the Mechanognomes.

See that's a Titan Construct though, made in the image of one of the Titan founders....look I don't get it either Skree lol.

Point being:
1. Eonar is a female titan.
2. Eonar has boobs.
3. Thus, female titanic creations have boobs.

Skree has a point. Made in the image of and all that.

Which makes one wonder...where did the female forms come from in regards to the corrupted Forger races; after all all Mechanognomes seen have the male body, same with Iron/Frost/Stone Dwarves and the Earthen described in War of the Ancients all seemed to be males.
At least the Giants all seem to be one gender.

Skreeran
I think that's just because they didn't bother to make female models for them.
Remember, there were no female eredar until 2.4, no female mogu until 5.2, no female worgen until 3.0, no female pandaren until 5.0, and there are still no female pygmies, saurok, jinyu, ogres, grummles, and so on.

That's....not really what I meant Skree heh. I was saying that from what the Lore has shown, the Crafted/Forger races just had new ones built(that's what the Giants do) and merely wondering if the Curse of Flesh is a true mutation virus...cause have to admit, if you woke up out of a sealed crypt with boobs that would be one hell of a surprise.
As for the other races; for all we know we've seen the female forms, they just look identical to the males.

Freya
and
Ironaya
and
Auriaya
and
Nablya
and so on, who are all female titanic watchers that don't appear to have been affected by the Curse.
