My opinion:

When KC started, MGE was nothing but mindless porn about Monster Girls. Each Mamono catered to somebody's fetish.

If you wanted brutal rapists, you had the Ushi-Oni. If you wanted yandere girlfriends, you had the Lamia. If you wanted complacent, submissive cuckeens, you had the Bicorn. If you wanted slutty deductress, you had Youko and Succubi. If you wanted devoted wives, you had the Unicorn and the Inari. If you wanted slaves, you had the Orc and the Ogre. If you wanted pets, you had the Kobold...etc. Any could be a fetish or a turn off to different people.

One person would find other people's fetishes disgusting and their favourite Mamonos vile, but it didn't matter, because each one could still enjoy their own fetish.

If you were into tentacle-worm stuff (and there are people who are into it, since there is a niche hentai genre about that), you would enjoy the Roper. If you weren't, no problem, there were many other Mamono to choose among. You could hate the Roper while loving the Inari or the Holstaur or the Lamia. To each his own.

But later, KC gave more depth to his world, made it more unified, made the Monster Girls a faction (the "good" one) with a shared phylosophy and an ethos, instead of a mere collection of creatures that just happened to share the same world. Stuff like Lamias killing unfaithful husbands or Mindflayers permanently turning men into pet squids were a flaw, a stain for the side KC portrays as the morally right one, so he retconned them to make them more palatable. That explain his twitters explaining that Mamonos didn't brainwash or enslave men, despite profiles clearly saying so, because those profiles were exaggerated.

As for me, in my headcanon not all Mamono have to be good and nice. Some can be bad. I don't need Mamonos to always be the "right side". Sometimes monsters are, well, real monsters.
