   We know that Sauron made orcs by somehow twisting and perverting some   
   elves. After that, were they self-propagating? I.e., were there female   
   orcs -- down in Nurn maybe, or out in Rhûn?   
      
   I'll admit that JRRT doesn't explicitly state the genders of the orcs   
   that we see up close and personal in tLotR, but Gorbag and Snaga always   
   struck me as male.
