Q&A

Is plausible to have subspecies with & without separate sexes?

+0
−0

I'm creating humanoid specie with two subspecies

  • Hairy races - roughly based on humans, chiss, mirialans, with standard males & females sexes
  • Tentacle races- roughly based on asari, twilek, togruta hermaphrodites with sex organs like futanari from Japanese manga

They could all interbreed between each other, with children getting DNA from both parents. However race is determined strictly by the mother, due to subspecies specific genes being encoded in mitochondrial DNA.

Is it possible for different subspecies to be with & without separate sexes?

Some background which I don't know is it important for answering.

Hairy races discriminate against tentacle ones, while modern hairies start to accept them as equals or at least say they do, the traditionalists which are majority of population still keep them as slaves and quite often castrate or even emasculate them. This behaviour was even more pronounced in the past when nearly all tentacle races were enslaved and castrated/emasculated. There were small number or free members of the tentacle races plus some runaways.

In the present tentacled are mainly kept as domestic servants and attractive ones for pleasure. The rest are becoming less economically valuable so they are slowly started to be freed. Most of them have few skills and turn to lowest payed jobs and prostitution to survive.
