THIS! This is exactly the problem I find with introducing female characters to TF. Not because "Ewww, don't bring girls to my boys-only club" but because I loved the idea of their society being genderless. Yeah, humans would of course associate them to be males but the robots, they wouldn't give a shit about things like gender and sexuality since everyone are the same... UNTIL the obvious females were introduced. I wouldn't have had a problem with them if it would have been more like, erm, aesthetic difference. Like robots with a different kind of design or something. But no, as soon as females were introduced they had to put things like romance and stuff to the series, suddenly adding the very human-like sexuality thing to a race where it shouldn't matter. They are freaking robots! Why do they have to have same gender streotypes as humans? THAT'S really the problem I found with it.
Luckily though, newer series have (like you said) explored gender and female characters better.
