Yet another possiblity is that the basic human shape is the predominate shape that intelligent life takes in the universe. One basic shape that helps lifeforms to devolp technology. Its hard for a creature that walks on all its legs to create something it can use as they never have free limbs to use to try differents things.
Perhaps the human bipedal design is just a well suited design for intelligence and the devolpment of technology. It could be adopted by say a silicon based life form that on the inside would be nothing like us.

If those extraterrestrial beings are intelligent and technologically advanced enough to actually arrive on earth from some distant star's planet, then i don't think they even need hands or feet. What do we use hands for? eating, lifting things up, etc. They might be just using machines for doing all those things. We use our feet to walk, they might be flying!
My point is, i don't think aliens (the really advanced) would have a form even close to us. I'm not saying they would be creepy ones, but no one would know unless you have seen one. So, i don't believe in people who say that they were abducted by greys or other human-like aliens.
Just an opinion. I have not seen one and I respect other people who have actually seen one.

I go more along with the theory that grays were created genetically to be slaves for a alien race and now they are trying to use humanity to repair their genetic code by making gray/human hybrids or "super grays" (they probably already have) and they are making deals with our governments and such (our govts are helping them get their goals and they help us with what we want blah blah yeah)
anyway thats what i think could probably be going on

What if all known greys were/are female? Female sex organs are a lot more easily concealed than male sex organs, even by natural means.
Has anyone seen the ideas for multigenerational starships? Some of the newer ideas are saying send only females and sperm for weight reduction purposes. I believe Space.com states that you would only need to send 180 unique human specimens (females and sperm samples combined) to prevent inbreeding or harmful genetic deterioration indefinitely in the context of selective breeding.
Also, in known "hive" insects, the workers/soldiers are sexually under-developed females. Heh, maybe there are voluptuous queen aliens out there somewhere?
Just some speculation on alien gender and reproduction.
Also for those of you who think greys are animals of some sort, how would you specifically classify aliens from a scientific point of view? What "Kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species" are they most like? If they don't have hair and nipples and stuff, they don't seem like mammals.

The truth of the Greys is this:
They are not from a 0-G environment.
They reproduce via CLONE technology and GENETIC engineering.
They communicate with eachother via TELEKENESIS.
They do not "Eat" they obsorb their fuels through their skin via OSSMOSIS.
Their "Skin" is still highly debateable as well as their "eyes' because it is widely stated that their typical appearance is mearly a suit that they wear, and more and more people are begining to accept this idea for the following reasons:
They are frail, a suit would help them sustain themselves in our environment or sheild them from malicious elements and bacteria.
The way that their spacecraft work, they are most likely required to wear these suits as to not disturb the highly delicate electrical conductivity.
Numerous accounts of seeing suits, whitely striber, travis walton, etc.
This does not mean that it is the truth, in my opinion its a 50/50 debate over weather their appearce is due to a suit or not.
Questions?
