Category:Female Transformers

Transformers appear to have both male and female gender analouges, at least mentally if not physically. "Female" transformers are comparatively rare, but are considered an official part of the Transformers franchise in every continuity.

According to DK's Transformers: The Ultimate Guide, "Transformers are inherently non-gender specific, and only some quirk of their timelost origins can account for their (female Transformers) difference in appearance and attitude." However the DK guide tends to focus mainly on the Dreamwave comic continuity (current at the time of its creation) and should not be considered binding for any other.

A note on "sex": Gender does not necessarily imply sexual reproduction. Romance between Transformers of different genders is common, especially in the Cartoons, but may be explained as a result of their mental processed being designed to imitate organic beings of like genders.

In Beast Wars, Rattrap makes numerous inuendoes, especially involving Silverbolt and Blacharachnia's relationship, that suggest that, at least by that era, there *may* have been something sex-like between TFs. Beast Machine's Technorganic reformating raises even further questions. It is possible that the Technorganic female Transformers, being merged organic and technological life to a celular level, might actually be physically female and capable of bearing young, but that remains speculation.
