  1. I like the theory of a "class" system as suggested by Scientist above. Perhaps The Great Beings decided to assign different nanobots to different jobs, and to classify these different types they just made one type male and one type female. There's nothing sexist about it: one class happens to be workers, and one happens to be scientists and teachers. The only reason it seems sexist is because the nanobots developed sentience; a glitch that was never planned for.

     

    But I also have to concede that kids in BIONICLE's target audience of 7-12 probably aren't going to understand this -or even think about it-, and they're just going to assume that females are naturally kinder and gentler than males.
