Deerclops is a she?

[Whisperlisc]

Well i just got glass eyebrella and read this

I always thought that deerclops was male, so i was living in a lie.

[CameoAppearance]

I think this was commented on in an old stream? But personally I just think there's more than one Deerclops.

[Terra B Welch]

so much for the 50/50 split on giant gender

 

[-Variant]

Yeah, long ago on Stream it was said all Giants, 'cept FW, Toadstool, and Klaus I recall were female.

If you don't want to believe that, you can just say there's more than 1 Giant. Some Survivors say Deerclops is male, some say female. (Wurt)
All in all, your pick, doesn't affect the game much I dare say.

[Szczuku]

It's gonna be a cold day in hell b4 I accept that in-game Deerclops is a she.

...but... Deerclops is an animal. Not only are you pushing dumb gender stereotypes (deep voice doesn't automatically mean male), but you're pushing them on an animal. That's just silly, especially when the game itself now has mention of Deerclops being female, rather than just characters/devs saying it. I'll never understand why these kind of threads always go farther than "these are the pronouns that are being consistently used now, the end."

Fuelweaver and Klaus I understand, but I wonder why Toadstool's an exception.

[Pumking7]

Actually Wurt was the first character to mention deerclops is female in the quote "She not look happy, Florp", but still wolfgang and webber reference deerclops as a he? So I don't really understand the point of changing it's gender from he to she or being something in between, otherwise to rattle some cages. At this point I don't care about deerclop's gender as that is kinda silly, I want to know what it is and why it is so mysterious compared to all other giants.

Maxwell and Wortox too.

Reminder that characters aren't all knowing and reference things from their own standpoint/point of view.

This includes pronouns.

This, and I doubt anyone's willing to check any time soon.

well they do produce spores as seen in one of their attacks so that kinda is the male part of a mushroom so I see them being male

Spores are asexual form of reproduction.

I retract statement

your right I was thinking of plants

[Owlrust]

Tbh, I personally don't think it matters because it's not really relevant to anything in the game; not unless we start trying to get into some kinky monster stuff. They're monsters, and I really don't like thinking about whether or not they have a "Hoo-Haw" or a "Pee-Paw" when I fight them. You guys ever hear that joke about monsters?

Dracula: "Son, it's time we have 'the talk'."

Son: "The talk?"

Dracula: "Indeed. You see, when two monsters like one another-"

Son: "They do the mash."

*Dracula knods*

Dracula: "They do the monster mash."

Well go figure, human brains evolved the ability to assume so that we can assume stuff.

I aknowledged that Deerclops is canonicaly a she but don't expect me to remember that in any future posts.

If deerclops is a she then what would a male deerclops even look like. If they reproduce asexually, then even giving them a gender wouldn't be based on any biological reason then, would it? (Because they typically have both in those scenarios or follow a completely different system, right?)

feastclops?

[CameoAppearance]

Not all animals have obvious differences between males and females; some are indistinguishable except for the reproductive anatomy (for instance, dogs and cats), and others are just slightly different sizes rather than having dramatic differences in colour or morphology. As for the voice... dude, female bears have deep voices too. It's an animal.

Maxwell persisting in calling a Deerclops "that guy" when he's the one who made a lot of the stuff in the Constant is the main reason I find it plausible that there's both male and female Deerclopses in the Constant, instead of the species being all-female and reproducing asexually. (It could be that Maxwell's prototype Deerclops was a male but females are much more common or more prone to rampaging through the survivors' campsites, too.) Any given Deerclops could be either, as far as I'm concerned.

I wonder what a deerclops reproducing looks like.  Maybe they just poop out their eyeball then grow a new one then the eyeball just grows into a new deer.

[Misuto]

The devs may have changed their minds at one point and revised history, but the game was made in English and deerclops is the "king" of winter. By English definition that is the "male" ruler. So originally deerclops was a male. 

[csc_unit]

As far as I am concerned, all characters in-game are just heteronormative ignorants. They should ask all monsters and giants their pronouns before fights; simple mark of respect. You don't know some deerclops might even be trans or non-binary go figure. 

 

Too far? Alright sorry 

[CameoAppearance]

Maybe Deerclopses can change sex like a hogfish.
