He's in Kazham and you can pay 50,000 gil to gawk at him.
But no, there are male Mithra, they just aren't playable, and I don't think there will be. Given the storyline of FFXI, I doubt we'll ever see more races added to the game.

I mean how hard would it be to be able to choose "beastmen" as your race...
I would require minimal programming I would think.
More on the subject though: ok, we can't be male mithras. I guess that is why we can't be hume children, or those fat chubby male hume NPCs, because it does not fit with story and scenario...
But why can't we SEE male Mithras...!? We see all kinds of people all over the place that we can't choose to "play". But why is it such a mystery that someone has not seen a male Mithra yet... we see child Mithras... all female...
Again, I am not getting to the part about us not playing male Mithras (Mithros?), just WHY CAN'T WE SEE THEM?!  Modnar

Eventually yes, when they finally add the Mithran Homeland which I believe to be in the Far South (not Elshimo.)
Will we ever play as Male Mithra?
Doubtful, as much as I'd like to play as one (if they're Ronso-ish), it doesn't look likely.  Rude, but not wrong. ;x Rank 10 Bastok, Rank 10 San d'Oria, Rank 10 Windurst

Well, since people post that question, I'd dare to ask: what's wrong with players playing opposite sex? I didn't know I am a catgirl IRL... it's just a character, just like there are people who play female characters in fighting games, and those who play male in them... do you not play yuna in FFX-2? I think you only get to play as girls...
Well, may be it's just me that don't go online to look for a love(not gonna fall for anyone 200000 miles from my place, you see), so I never care if the player behind the screen is a guy or a girl.
As to the topic: like everyone said, I doubt male mithra would be put in, that'd destroy the whole story of Mithra being a female dominant race...
and wouldn't putting new race in a bit unfair to the players that played for 6 months+? I would want to remake if they made a new race that interested me, but then I would have to delete my existing character to make one?

If people hitting on you in a MMORPG bothers you THIS much then you truly have some issues you need to seek out.
