Why do people keep saying Mind Flayers are sexless?

I assume this is because they only look at the Fandom Wiki about Mind Flayers, and then somehow use this information to try and be upset about being able to romance Mind Flayers/The Emperor in Baldur's Gate 3, since the Fandom Wiki calls Mind Flayers sexless.

My best bet is that due to a Mind Flayers long life span and the rarity of them spawning, Mind Flayers are most likely Simultaneous Hermaphrodites, meaning they could either asexually reproduce through self-fertilization or reproduce with another Mind Flayer who is also ready to spawn. This means Mind Flayers are perfectly capable of sexual intercourse/reproduction.

Note: I also feel like people just seem to forget that one does not need to have sex organs in order to have sexual relations, compatible or non-existent when talking about fiction.
