Yes... Even worse than a "demob suit". I wonder what May's body was before she tried to steal the money to buy a fighter-jet chassis?

A box on a shelf somewhere, I think. Wasn't she a financial controller of some sort?

In a way, it makes sense. Imagine that you were a disembodied mind whose only 'senses' were your input and output data and maybe a fairly simple audio-visual hook-up to let you interface more easily with your human co-workers. Couldn't you see yourself developing an urge to have wings and fly?
I wonder if May had a decent defence at her trial? I would have definitely tried a stress-induced insanity defence, myself.

It's called old age. Fortunately, it's not permanent -- or even very long-lasting :-\
CaptainFish:
May's chassis is a bummer (moreso than was shown earlier, the hair being of low quality was already known). I don't really see it changing any time soon either, based on the pace of the comic and limited focus on her.* It does explain how she was able to get a chassis when they're depicted as so expensive elsewhere.
I hope she gets to be a jet somehow...
*Maybe Faye will learn enough to give her a touch up, though!
Is it cold in here?:
I can't remember if it's Word of God but it's possible they have gender identity settings so as to make it easier for humans to deal with them. We as a species do have a widespread tendency to assign genders to inorganic entities.
