Are there any male-only classes/prestige classes?

BRB, rolling a Eunuch Warlock named Rod Biggerstaff.

I seriously have to figure out a way to optimize and use the class now. I'll get to speak in a creepy falsetto all game. What's not to love?

The first question was answered upthread, so that's cool. No sexism intended, also cool. Whether that succeeded, is open to interpretation IMO.

As for your second question, could you define 'more inclusive'? More inclusive than what? The rest of the system? The Evil book? Also, why is the onus on the Good book to be 'more inclusive'?

Yes. I meant TEH BOOK OF EVILZ.
And... because... good doesn't discriminate? Never mind, Pelor and his paladins proved me wrong again.

Can I just say that this entire thread is based on the assumption that the game designers were actually thinking about the classes they developed

You know there are Good gods that are a lot more bigoted than Pelor, who isn't really, unless you count undead as being their own species... Moradin is pretty exclusionary, Garl Glittergold, is fairly open, but a little exclusionary.

His main goal throughout the game is to find ancient regeneration magic.

The question becomes, do you play Varys...or do you play one of the guys from History of the World Part I?

Optimizing the class is easy.

Just name your character Varys. You'll win at everything, forever.

... Except, you know, that. It's a small price to pay, depending on your relevant ability score modifier.

EDIT: Dangit, I got cut off.

He is not yet very large, as he has just been snipped.

on this whole bigoted good gods thing, i find garl interesting, since he initiated the feud with the kobalds by collapsing kurtulmak's cave. i don't care if he is a god of pranksters that just ain't right.

This is true.

More inclusive han it is. Not having gender gated PrC's and the OP wasn't aware of several more female exclusive PrC's or Eunuch Warlock, so it made BoED seem less inclusive than other books.

I thought we established that male Healers were Dude-bro Valarian's gay friends. Sassiness level not withstanding.

it is our responsibility as die hard fans of the system to over analyze and deconstruct everything they wrote without thinking about why they wrote it.

The Mod Wonder: Yep, this went to a stupid place. While it is possible to talk about a male-only PrC, about the time the word "Feminazi" starts flying around, we've stepped into a combination of "Inappropriate Topic" and "Flaming".
