There was a female autobot in the Transformers animated movie. (God, mutual self-demeanment makes me so hot.)

I think you're confusing 'having babies' with 'removing a child from a papoose'
You know what? Never mind.

(and I was very close to demeaning us both)

Or perhaps Soundwave was the robot equivalent of a male seahorse?

There was a female autobot in the Transformers animated movie? Oh, baby, now I've got something to live for!

I just noticed there was a little "tag line" at the bottom. Ha ha!

/Now I have to go back and read them all again?? OK!

My favorite part of the cartoon was the disclaimer at the bottom. And to make sure it's clear, I mean that as a compliment.

Robot ladies in disguise!

Maybe transformers are like seahorses? Male releases infants?

Are we both demeaned if I point out that Opimus Prime's girlfriend Elita One was introduced in the season 2 episode "The Search for Alpha Trion" which came out a full year before the movie?

I guess that means rule 34 just got a tantalizing new twist.

Perhaps Soundwave was a tranny. They are robots in disguise afterall.

Panel 3. This comic is all about panel 3.

Therw as a female transformer in the animated series (several of them), animated movie, live action movie (revenge of the fallen), beast wars, beast machines, unicron trilogy, recent 'animated' series... seriously dude, swing and miss

October 18, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterMortenGreen

Come on, it’s obvious. Soundwave was male.

The ‘small robots’ he ejaculated where his transformer semen.

wasnt there a female decepticon in transformers:cybertron. a speedboat i think?

The concept of "discovering surprising truths through a Michael Bay movie" is, in itself, a surprising truth.

October 18, 2010 | Unregistered Commenterjvwalt

O Maaaaan, it's so lucky you put that tag line at the bottom. You saved us both a lot of demeaning.

October 18, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterRock Ripsnort

LOL!

It is also fun watching some early posters trip over themselves. Fun in an amusing, friendly way. It just adds to the fun as suspending our disbelief wears off.

I'll have to agree with Missy on this one........
p.s., I'll never understand the priorities of men.

October 18, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterMaribeth

More than just Elita-1, Random TF Fan. Chromia and Inferno's girlfriend, whose name I forget.

October 18, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterPeebs

Looks like everyone has listed Arcee, who was a main character in the original animated series (after the first movie) and later became a Headmaster with Spike's son. However, well before the 1st film there was an episode of the animated series where the Autobots traveled back to Cybertron to stop the Decepticons and the Autobots met with the female Autobots that they left behind only to leave them behind again!

October 18, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterThe Jude

Well, "goosemonster" beat me to it (ha!) but that was my first thought, also. (Not sure if I should admit that...)

October 18, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterRob

If he was a seahorse, there still needs to be a fembot to lay her eggs inside him. Urgh.

October 18, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterDavid B Traver Adolphus

@Maribeth. I have to agree, but the priorities of women are just as bad most of the time. I'd say that people generally have lousy priorities.
