They were supposedly carved specifically for Lei Shen and were supposed to be the only two female mogu, but if you visit Panderia right now and go to the hub where you get all your dailies you can find a female patrolling the room.
As I understand it, the Rajani are a recently rebuilt clan so the female mogu in it could’ve been based off of the twin consorts.
What I want to know is why someone from a race that’s obviously not sexually reproducing would bother with having consorts or care about gender at all.

Probably the same reason Titan Constructs are built to resemble males and females.
I don’t know what that reason is, mind, but it’s probably the same reason.

Having some female Titan Constructs make some sense since there is a female titan (well, technically two if you count Azeroth). The fact that they were the only two made prior to the Rajani makes it seem like Lei Shen was the only one who cared about it.
Though, now that we’re on the subject, where did the females for the races that were hit by the curse of flesh come from? I could be forgetting something but I don’t remember seeing any female Earthen, Iron Vrykul, or Mechagnomes. Was that a side-effect of the curse?
Sexuality as a whole had to be created by the old gods
No way were they carving wieners on all the stone people when they were making them, but boom curse of flesh and now they have wieners

Not really.
The Titanic creations weren’t the only living beings on Azeroth - natural reproduction already existed.
The fact that the Curse of Flesh had to or even could operate under natural/semi-natural parameters is probably why it worked at all. Trying to go directly from Titanic Construct to Void-Spawned Nightmare was probably beyond the Old Gods in a non-direct intervention sort of way.
A free N’zoth directly corrupting Ra’dan is one thing. The bound and broken Old Gods corrupting entire races when buried and bound to the point of being essentially forgotten are two completely different things.
Um… we’re assuming that, of course. Because Blizzard has yet to release a model that doesn’t wear at least shorts. We don’t actually know what’s inside them…
Yeah, the Titans are a strange bunch, sooo…
Maybe that’s all they were carving and the curse of flesh added the rest of the body

There’s at least one female mogu among the evil clans you fight as well.
Considering the Mogu were one of the titan created races, they may have simply decided to make female versions based on the fact that there were female constructs.
Thanks yogg!

Looking at this thread, it makes me wish that alliance got the pandas and horde got mogu.
Oh well. Watches kung fu panda
Yeah let’s let the overbloated faction continue to get all the cool stuff
That doesn’t explain why, until very recently, the only one to bother was Lei Shen. Why did he care but none of the others did?
He’s a horndog?
Because he thought kings were supposed to have consorts? Unless Blizzard gives a reason there’s no actual answer to this.
The most likely scenario is that the only reason female mogu exist at all is so blizz could lure in lonely basement dwellers with the twin consorts, and then later added more because people enjoy the model and the design work had already been done anyway.
I thought the Clan we’re helping in the Vale was among the oldest of all the mogu.
So I just assumed that originally there were both male & female mogu, then they found the Titan Forge & decided to only 3D print Male Mogu & stopped making girls. So no more ‘old-fashioned Mogu creation’ Then a bunch of time passes, Lei Shen reads about the first kings that they have consorts, but he doesn’t understand what they’re actually for, just that they are a status symbol. So he has a pair made on the ‘Mogu Printer’
It would be different if we saw a bunch of them in the Vale but there is only ONE! She’s like the Smurfette of the clan.
Vanity.
Harem = peak status.

They were, until Blizzard decided to do another retcon.
