Its the same thing with the Toads. They're essentially genderless.
But why did they make Toadette if Toads were already genderless? Isn't toadette a girl version of toad? Why not just a toad with a pink head or such? Are toads asexual like the Yoshis? Is Toadette a Transexual Toad? Then their is the whole trans thing. What if Yoshi identifies as a boy but was born female or vice versa? It's so complex digging into the diverse world of Nintendo anatomy lol.
Not many things other than plants and some single cellular life forms and bacteria or some oceanic critters could be labeled as genderless. Most living creatures have a gender like humans and almost any reptilian/dinosaur like Yoshi
. Nintendo saying they are genderless is so confusing because it goes against all we know about animals and life forms. Unless Yoshi is a parasite or maybe an alien? Maybe Yoshi is from a different planet hence why he can be found in the galaxys of super mario galaxy. Is it a mass conspiracy to keep us guessing by Nintendo?
They say in the japanese version of the smash melee trophy that Yoshi is neither boy nor girl and had the nerve to plaster Yoshi's asexuality on a AAA title purchased by millions of people lol. But how can a egg hatching animal be genderless? Asexual animals don't reproduce that way i don't think. And where did the egg come from? A sexual genderless animal wouldn't have reproductive organs to lay an egg out of. Yoshi must have a private part where the egg comes from. The egg comes from under the tail. And without digging too deep into the intagables i would say Yoshi by scientific hypothesis has to be a typical egg laying female reptile
. But science is tossed out the window with video game worlds. Yoshi is 1 of a kind.
I wish i could meet Mr.Miyamoto to ask him the ancient riddle. I would bow and ask the god himself for all the answers without any developer to make their own assumption. At least with the old Mario Bros. riddle of what Mario's last name was. Mr Miyamoto confirmed that it was Mario Mario. as confusing and silly as identical first and last names are, at least it was confirmed from the source and we got the Miyamoto blessing on it lol.
I guess we were never really meant to look so deep into Yoshi's gender. Maybe it was the plan all alone. To show that gender never really mattered and was all just a nonsensical illusion. It shows how meaningless of a role gender plays in the grand scheme of things of us being who we are. Yoshi is a brave and amazing hero and a beloved icon of our childhoods and we never looked to the gender or labeled him/her/it as anything. Yoshi was always just Yoshi. loved for it's merit and loyalty and not for it's gender or gender roles. It's truly a beacon of hope and a beautiful enthralling tale

I guess we can find in Yoshi what we want to find. We can find ourselves.....
