Let's discuss Lita, the newest mutant turtle in the IDW continuity.
I'd ask how eyes can look female, but I'm pretty sure I know the answer to that...
"Women's" eyes are tertiary sexual characteristics, and mutant turtles don't even have secondary ones.
Isn't the main difference between Jennika and the boys' eyes just the color (the boys have brown, she has blue)?
Maybe, but eye color still isn't a sexual characteristic.
Sorry, that is what I meant, that their eyes are basically identical except for the color (which is only different because Jennika retained her eye color from her human form).
Ahh, all right.
The most common way to determine gender in a turtle is to look at the length of its tail. Female turtles have short and skinny tails while males sport long, thick tails, with their vent (cloaca) positioned closer to the end of the tail when compared to a female.
But in IDW they don't draw them with tails sadly. It seems the Mirage turtles are the only ones where we can see tails.
Seeing as Lita is living with the Turtles in a Dojo, I think she will learn how to fight.
Basic self-defense, at least. The weasels, too.
