Baby Yoda's just fiddling with the radio (meme alert)

I love his foreign policy…

Also… do we know that Baby Yoda is a boy? I haven’t seen the show, only the clips and memes, so… I don’t know what gender they’ve used to describe the one baby to rule them all…

[ETA] Also, Baby Yoda could also be non-binary…

We don’t, actually; but you know how people usually do…

Yep… dangly bits are the default… :roll_eyes: I think I’ll just call Baby Yoda they until we have some confirmation on their gender…

I’m not sure we know Yoda was.

That’s true… although everyone has assumed Yoda was a male and that the other of his species, Yaddle, was a lady-type… but we don’t know jack and shit about their gender constructs! Maybe they’re all gender neutral?

[ETA] Doesn’t Yaddle show up in some of the non-canon stuff? In the comics, perhaps? Maybe that settles the gender question?

And the script doesn’t help us out, since it refers even to droids as “he/him.”

See, just more assumptions that dangly bits are default…

Sure, but @Brainspore did nail the R2D2 description recently;

“If it uses male pronouns and it goes around sticking its data port into any available socket then it counts as a dude.”

I’ll accept that, yes.

Yes we do!

YODA: Yoda! You seek Yoda!
LUKE: You know him?
YODA: Take you to him, I will!

BFD. The original trilogy also refers to every single droid as “him.” As has been pointed out here by @Brainspore, the only droid with positive anatomical proof of maleness is R2D2.

Ships are ‘her’, for some reason; meanwhile everything else is automatically ‘him’ by traditional societal constructs… and all of this is not germane to the the actual topic at hand.

At least in the case of the Millenium Falcon they retconned in a decent explanation for the pronoun (in that the ship has incorporated the consciousness of L3-37, a droid that self-identified as female).
