Play the game, listen to the logs and get a clue.
Do you ever say anything that isn't wrong or dumb?
To answer the original poster, all hybrids are male because Irrational didn't have the time or resources to make female hybrid models. Same reason they recycled the Goggles model for the suicide ghost, and made three robots based off basically the same mesh.

Speaking of character models though, does anyone know any good guides or tutorials on adding character models into the game? I have no problem converting objects into .bin format, but character models always crash on me.

Ah, thank you. Now maybe I can do more than just upgrade random objects, lol.

Hey, if the annelids can mutate the hybrids as much as they do, maybe they can have the females switch gender too?
Maybe they want just males because they're more aggressive?
Actually, this is a very good idea- perhaps the Many have the ability to change the gender of the host.

Hey it's all in the logs, listen to them, irritating person.

Why bother? They kill the host's brain and flesh and then psionically control them giving their mind just enough independence to figure that they're fucked. Most of the life cycle of the hybrid is spent developing the brain and gaining muscle mass, there's no reason or indication they'd bother or even can change something on a chromosomal level
Yeah, I know. It was just one of those weak explanations to "fix" an inconsistency.
If there really is a reason for it it's more likely that the midwives comprise of almost all the female staff, and that the rest were turned into hybrids too like the other crew members, but we never get to see them since they're so rare.
