I don't know. This might seem strange but I'm wondering how they reproduce if at all. They obviously have sexes and apparent masculine or feminine features so...ya
is it just something with creating essence and stuff and not actually biological? Lol
After the final battle, Heirach Artanis already declared :
Everyone can be a templar , a phasesmith etc if they have the qualification and willingness to do so.
They also have advance cloning technology, advance robotic (dragoon), which they often use to replenish their number.
Here is a link to the topic, apparently your question hasn't been answer in nearly over 5 years.
It was always ambiguous in brood war, but blizzard hamfisted maternity into the protoss race in legacy of the void, with Vorazun making several references to Raszagal as her 'mother'. They don't explain how protoss reproduce - the only hint we have is the Kassia crystal, which apparently allows protoss to be a more prolific race. Parthenogenesis could explain protoss reproduction but nothing has been confirmed.
There isn't actually a need for blizzard to have engendered the race, since there is no evidence of sex organs, so I personally chalk up the inclusion of 'male' or 'female' protoss and the nebulousness of the race's population growth to lazy writing.
And ... the reason you point it out is what exactly?
Because you're almost making it sound like they don't differentiate between men or women. There's zero proof that there is "no gender role in their society". Artanis's quote is actually talking about classism, so I'm not sure where you got your idea from.
The way they move around with little to no clothing in some of the cinematics would lead you to believe that if they had sex organs at all, they're internal (or just very small).
this thread needs to get outta here, along with anyone who actually cares about the specifics of "Protoss bangin"
also, Stop trying to inject your tumblr pseudo science into the starcraft """""lore"""""". You can fantasize about how zeratul and artanus (xxssj4goku420xx) don't have gender roles all you want, it doesn't make it any less retarded. Take a hike into the side of a blizzard rock formation you bad baby bitch
Lmao, this person made an account only because they're pissy about this thread. Mission Accomplished!

Logical explanation would be Protoss is asexual and reproduce as such. Male and Female Protoss is only an abstract idea, so that means Protoss is really Genderless and identification between sexes makes no sense to "alien"bodies that have no sex.
Are you sure you've read and understand my 1st post carefully and correctly?
Like all of them, not just fragments. All of it as a whole.
Just making sure.
Yes, unless English isn't your first language and you were trying to convey something else? Because as of now, the Artanis quote is a non-sequitur, both to the OP's question and your other assertion that "there is no gender role in their society."
Why are we assuming they aren't just banging like most folks? It's a fictional race - if there's nothing in the game to prove otherwise, and the whole Raszagal/Vorazun thing has been established, then any inconsistency with them sexing up like normal is because Blizzard never filled in the gaps.
As boring as that is, that's probably what it is. And Zeratul has nipples, so...
I hate to say this but if you're trying to make a fool of yourself, you have succeeded. There's no reason to lose your marbles over a simple question.
And you trying to insult me is offensive to all those out there who wish they didn't have a mental disability, so all those who do not suffer like that should respect those who do. I take personal offense because one of my closest friends since childhood has a mental disability and quite frankly you're pissing me off right now. The whole "you're just retarded" argument is immature and offensive. So please, if all you're going to do is foul up this friendly, welcoming community with sour rage, then go do that somewhere else. I think I speak for the community when I say SC2Mapster doesn't appreciate assholes who make accounts just to spit out garbage at a user or group of users.
As a callback to the "you're retarded" idea, I think you should try a Google+ gaming community. There are plenty of people out there who would be willing to stoop to your level. There are a lot of obnoxious people like on the mainstream Battle.net forums as well, so you have some options.
Protoss are meant to be sexual. They were once primitive tribal creatures, which were forcefully uplifted by the Xelnaga because of their great spiritual potential. Their physiological differences rules out them being clones, hinting that there are variances, or genes of sorts, in their population.
However they do not have anything which could be referred to as genes by normal standards. If they did the Zerg would be able to extract essence from them, like they can from Terran/Humans, but instead they are completely incompatible with the Zerg much to the frustration of Dehaka. Combine with what was mentioned in the LotV campaign about them being "pure of spirit" and it looks like the Protoss form is dictated by their spirit rather than genes or "form". The Kalah was a pinnacle of this spiritual form, unifying the entire Protoss population and making "living" only a small part of life until it was broken during LotV. This is opposite of the base Zerg which are "pure of form" and originally lacked spirit. All Zerg used to be nothing but mindless, calculating drones which worked together in constant unity until spirit was introduced into the race as a desperate survival attempt by the Overmind.
Further evidence of Protoss being a race who physical existence is guided more by spirit than form are the Purifiers. Protoss souls put into machines that for all reason cannot be discerned from "living" Protoss. They also have a large psionic affinity, able to absorb energy from materials such as crystals and gas (Terrizine). They also do not need to eat or drink (which the Zerg do), instead getting sustenance from energy of nearby crystals such as Pylons. Finally they can do crazy stuff like Templar merging into Archons.
As such the bodies and possibly the cells of Protoss are likely made out of minerals, gases and other psionic aligned substances. Their reproduction is likely something similar to Templars forming an Archon, where two (possibly more), Protoss interact with each other spiritually in a ritual to form a new spirit and a body. Although originally it probably involved eggs, it is unlikely that still occurs seeing their technological state with instead a heavy reliance of machines to help out with development. All Protoss until LotV had no idea of childhood or parents because the Kalah, the combination of all Protoss, provided them with knowledge and purpose. The exception was the Dark Templar who separated from the Kalah at some stage of development as part of a ritual forcing them to depend on those they interacted with in form, and hence why Vorazun had such a strong bond to her "mother" where no other Protoss makes any reference to parents.
This is also why the Hybrid were so powerful. An "impossible" combination of form and spirit to create truly powerful beings. They were created in labs by combining tissues of Protoss and Zerg in a way only the Xelnaga could.
It is worth noting that the Protoss, now separated from the Kalah, are having to develop more in form to cope with existence. Like wise the Zerg, now without Kerrigan, are having to develop in spirit to find their own existence.
Or maybe I am totally wrong lol. Still would make a lot of sense.

Yeh so Chromie must also be a mammal then. A quick form change later and that answer is so wrong. The reason for such features is most likely for theatrical purposes so players could more easily identify the gender of characters involved. It is like how artists like to draw female dragons with long eye lashes (eg, the dragon from Shrek ) or other feminine features.

i really liked the whole breeding kryptonian process storyline in the last movie..
great subject matter <3
ps: also, talking about s x with practical reason to do so kappa.. :D

There's some non canon Starcraft ghost concept art showing Protoss tending eggs in a body of water.
Females are respected in Protoss society.
