Nah the absence of simultaneous hermaphroditism is a sign that simultaneous hermaphroditism isn't an effective evolutionary strategy compared to having two distinct sexes or even sequential hermaphroditism.

If it actually was effective, it'd be predominant in nature, but it ain't.

I thought the whole point was that this perfect being had transcended the need to even care about evolutionary strategy.
 
You could spin it that said lifeform was optimized for a clannish social structure rather than natural selection. Political marriages could be performed between any two (or more) individuals, and still produce heirs.

It probably wouldn't be a natural adaptation, but anything with the words ultimate or perfect in it is immediately suspect on that front. Not that the distinction matters at all.
 
Being that doesn't care about evolutionary strategy tend to already extinct, or will be soon.
 
I like to call my avatar "Perverted Palpatine"

Scenario 1: Take over the world with my immense dark side powers. Heavily Research rejuvenation methods, both scientific and dark side so I don't stay a wrinkled prune forever. (Probably unlikely to work out for me in the long run.)

Scenario 2: Rule my already existing empire and fix all the blatant security problems that lead to my death. Kill Darth Vader. Make Mara Jade my new apprentice but teach her to never even consider overthrowing me. Transfer my mind into a young clone body of myself and rule the Empire for all eternity after using my meta-knowledge to crush the Rebellion. Keep Luke alive but ignorant to avoid other Chosen Ones being born outside my influence.

Reading this post in combination with the Peanuckle quote in your signature, my mind went to some very bad places.
Death Star-chan will be ruined for marriage~

I think what you meant to say there is "very good places"

And do you really think Perverted Palpatine wouldn't just marry Death Star-Chan. She's the only one truly worthy of his love.
 
Don't worry, Papa Palpatine will teach Death Star-Chan how to be a proper lady.
 
You lie.

Alternatively, I'm now a piece of work from a famous graffiti artist.
But you still lie.

Filthy liars, the lot of you.
 
I'm a character from abstract anime, that makes me a girl, a bear, and a beargirl. Simultaneously.

I wonder how it's presented on IRL...

I'm a 6' 4" immortal teenage girl with gravity powers. On one hand, I am now the only being on the planet with magic powers - I can probably talk to NASA about aiding launches. On the other, my wife is going to be pissed.

I'm currently writing that, dammit. So I'm now my SI in my SI's setting only I know what happens for the first 2 arcs, and what's likely coming in the third. But I'm me, replacing me in a new body. That's some Inception shit right there. I guess I have a minor leg up on my SI as I know a couple things that story-me doesn't.
