Topic: What would Ziro the Hutt be considered?

After seeing the Clone Wars movie, I am curious. In the real world, what would Ziro the Hutt be classified as? A crossdresser, a homosexual, a transsexual, what? Please do not give me facts from the fictional universe such as Hutts are Hemphinites or whatever it's called.

Probably just a female because doesn't her species switch genders annually or something like that? I forget the details but I remember that from some book.

"Hutts were hermaphroditic, and as a result, gender was more of a case of a Hutt's deliberate decision or a viewer's deduction. Often, Hutts carrying children were referred to as female, though it was entirely up to the Hutt in question as to if the distinction was accepted or not. For instance, Jiliac was referred to as a female after becoming pregnant, but Popara and Zorba still considered themselves males after birthing their respective children. In addition, some Hutts were known to take mates with each other, such as Gorga and Anachro."

Hermaphrodites exist in real life, most notably among certain types of frogs. What gender they are classified as changes depending on what reproductive organs are currently "in use" so that you can be male one year and female the next. I haven't seent the movie, so forgive me if I got the question wrong.

BTW, they named him Ziro? Like the number? How cliche.

Well, since Hutts are hermaphrodites, it's difficult to define their sexual orientation. Just for consistency's sake, they're all referred to with male pronouns. As for Ziro, we could classify him as an effeminate eccentric. Other than his stereotypical behavior, there's nothing to imply anything abnormal about his sexuality.

i have the .torrent should d/l it soon. also thx for the guy who cited wookieepedia :D

the first 2 episodes were bad-ass. Though technically Malevolence seems a weird superweapon. A big-ass ion cannons that can disable small fleets? probably useful in some larger battles. doesn't seems anything that coulld threaten the strategic balance of the Clone wars but the fact that the fleets disappear probably scared Republic High command.
