[edit] More In depth
Should we go more in depth with this page? perhaps split it in to three individual pages. it just seemed that a single page for all the genders didn't sit right - Captain majors
- I agree with you captain. but I think maybe male female and double gendered maybeDarth Hurricane 04:43, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
- yes, I agree more depth is needed on this page. Perhaps we could say something like, "in many species, such as humans, x, and y, males and females are easily distinguishable by their clothing, hair, and body shape, and are socialized to behave differently from an early age. In other species such as x, y, and z, males and females do not exhibit markedly different behavior, and can be difficult to tell apart." 130.64.158.231 02:25, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
- The most I can think of being done with discussing genders and not going into the nitty-gritty crack-open-that-anatomy-and-physiology-book territory would be a section describing the generalized sexual dimorphism between males and females (at most breasts, build, and the pelvic structure). I'm willing to write up a vague section about that if there are no objections. Trak Nar 02:31, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Some heckling from the peanut gallery, I'm afraid: this article really needs to distinguish between sex and gender. The two terms are not synonymous.
so why dont you define them for us mr. gallery? diobern 12:55, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Droid gender
I would like some further clarification of the guidelines on when you can define a droid's "gender programming". Is it only humanoid droids that speak with a gendered voice? Is it once another character refers to a droid by a gender that it's official? When a droid refers to another droid by a gender that it's official? Are there guidelines like "all astromech droids are male, all ships are female"? The issue came up on T3-M4's page as he was listed "masculine programming" despite having very few gender pointers. I think it'd be good to hash out some guidelines for determining when a droid officially has gendered programming. // fodigg
