Why are there no female minions?

It appears that the M in Minion is for misogyny.

Or male. It's because minions are gay lol. Idk though, maybe they breed like piccolo.

Or male

But they all have male names such as Dave, Carl etc. I assume they don't reproduce and Gru just spawns them in his lab. Maybe he's the real misogynist, he chose not to create any females

Because they are fictional characters from a children's movie.

Wasn't the joke that it was kinda a cheap copypasta clone job resulting in exact replicas or am I thinking of another mad scientist/supervillain?

I'm with Crimson on the weird ass Namek reproduction. Even if that (and that alone) almost ruined the mean green spaceman(s) for me back then. Bodyhorror was different for baby bisabo.
psy damage
By the time Cell rolls around I was just like some fucking weird shit man, but Red Ribbon Army's back bby.

I thought they were hired and not created or something but it's been a minute since I seen any of the movies.

they would get r8p3d, duhhh. those minions are all obvious sex perverts, i.e. their obsession with teh phallic fruit banana.

technically accurate but not a fun or silly answer.

In the context of the thread it is unexpected and out of place so arguably it's the only fun or silly answer.
