Why Are There No Female Space Marines?

[Todd]

My hot take:

There are no female space Marines....

There are no MALE space Marines either.

There are only space Marines.

Either sex can aspire to be a space Marine. But all distinction is pretty much eliminated with the complete replacement of their hormone system. This would be why prepubescent children are required for the process. Pretty all sex organs are removed and replaced.

By the time they go through the process of becoming a space Marine they are transhuman war machines with no sex at all. If they were once female or male, you wouldn't be able to tell and would be nearly identical.

"But BROTHER I am pinned here!" -pronouns?-

I get some people may refute this with the masculine language and pronouns used... But here's a thought... They don't speak English. They speak gothic. Gothic seems to be similar to Latin in many ways. One key feature of Latin is not everything is gendered like in English. They have relational words in male, female, and neuter. So basically in Gothic they may very well use the familiar form of the neuter gender pronouns... But as English requires you to pick one of two... "Brother" and "he/him" are used in translation.

With this in mind, beyond the newest Horus heresy rule book, it's easy to have AFAB person's becoming Space Marines without really changing any lore.

"What are you?

"I AM A SPACE MARINE"

"no, I mean what gender are you?"

"THE EMPEROR'S ANGELS OF DEATH"

"no no, I mean what's in your pants!?"

"BOLTER AMMO"

no, they are only men

[KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK]

"The process of creating Space Marines is based on the hormonal and biological type of the male human, so only men can undergo the transformation." (c) Official wiki of warhammer... Don’t be stupid and stop bringing up LGBT topics in the forum. As for female characters in the Inquisition or sister of war, just so you know, the game isn’t about them.

your head canon is not lore accurate

[PirateNinjaRobot]

There is nothing in the lore saying prepubescent people are used to make Marines. Adult humans can become marines. This post is idiocy. Dudes don't get to the Sisters either, calm down with this trans ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
