cider float 2,539 February 10, 2016 Share February 10, 2016 (edited) Insects with hives usually have a larger ratio of females over males. Males are usually relegated to drone work while it's mostly females that are soldiers. So does this same thing apply to the changelings Edited February 10, 2016 by cider float Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueBrony 388 February 10, 2016 Share February 10, 2016 An interesting theory. I would be inclined to believe you. Check out my youtube music channel My OC- Prof. Noble H. Quikwitt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidral Mundet 1,666 February 10, 2016 Share February 10, 2016 Well given that they can shapeshift, I have to image they're hermaphrodites, though we've never seen a changeling take on a male form in the show yet. 1 Logic is the beginning of wisdom, not the end.

Maybe it's because they're females they prefer the female form? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormlight 1,371 February 10, 2016 Share February 10, 2016 That's something I haven't thought of before, which is pretty interesting to think of and infer about. Credit for signature goes to Eazyfries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny1226 14,674 February 10, 2016 Share February 10, 2016 I think the changelings might be mixed male and female or perhaps neither as besides chrysalis they seem to look exactly the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starflite527 25 February 12, 2016 Share February 12, 2016 Well, they all look the same in their natural form, and they can change shape into whoever they want to. So really, there's no way of knowing, with the obvious exception of Queen Chrysalis. But I am inclined to agree, just because it makes sense.

cmarston1 5,964 February 12, 2016 Share February 12, 2016 Well seeing as how changelings haven't had an important role in the show sense A Canterlot Wedding, there is no way of telling whether this is true or not. But it is an interesting theory to take consideration of. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goat-kun 2,531 February 12, 2016 Share February 12, 2016 The way I recall things about social hymenoptera, all of their workers are female. Or if you think more in the way of termites, their workers and warriors are actually male and female individuals. Drones are specifically male hymenoptera individuals hatched to fertilize a queen. Are lings similar? Who knows. Arthropods are one of the writers’ greatest mysteries. I think that if they ever develop changeling lore, they’ll go the way of normal pony society with just a wee drop of despotism and a gallon of comic relief.
