Just curious...do you envision Piccolo with a -ahem- "pickle"?

I cry every time I see someone draw him without genitalia. Seriously, tho, just because he's asexual doesn't mean we can't all imagine him to be a well-hung green giant. ^__^

Actually Akira Toriyama stated in a interview for Shonen Jump that the Namekians are a hermaphroditic race as opposed to asexual with physiques/qualities most similar to those of human males. I assume this would mean the ‘female’ organs are inside as opposed to the opposite. As he is the creator, I don’t think there’s much argument there to offer. (Regardless what Team Four Star says *lol* ) In a lot of ways this actually makes the most sense as the Nameks are based on slugs and snails, and slugs are in fact all hermaphrodite and reproduce by eggs.

I've always imagined Piccolo as asexual, reproducing by spitting an egg from his mouth. But I've imagined scenarios like this. Gohan being surprised by not seeing genitals. Piccolo however senses Gohan is horny and decides that he wants to try out human sexuality. He places his hand on Gohan crutch and reads his genital's chi and with a secret technique he copys his genital structure, reorganizes his DNA and BAM! He sprouts a 7 incher before Gohan's very eyes overwhelming his imagination and libido.

The concept was taken from slugs and snails so.... a pair of Namekians BOTH lay an egg after the exchange!? LOL!

I dunno, hmmm ...never thought to deeply on the subject of slug reproduction *lol* Not sure if BOTH of them would have an egg however. I’m going to assume that if it’s like real slugs/snails that one is the acting ‘male’ while one is the acting ‘female’ ...Ug! It’s so complicated! *LOL!* Lemme look up slugs on wiki...

This would make sense, they would both come away from the whole thing pregnant. Explains why there were two Namekian boys in that one village. At least that's how my head explains it.

Don't know about slugs but I kept snails as a kid and you can just pick any two garden snails and they'll both lay eggs. I hope I didn't just give someone fanfic fodder.. LOL!
