The most profound and debated question ever in gaming. The "which came first the chicken or the egg" of gaming riddles. :D. Me and my brother used to argue about it a lot when we were young and everyone has a side. Which side are you? :) Team Yoshi is a Boy, Team Yoshi is a girl, Team Yoshi is a Hermaphrodite? It's so profound and changes the whole way we think of everything when we look beyond as not just a game but as a realistic life comparison of what a dinosaur would be like. Most of us growing up called him a boy, he makes boy noises and the game never distinguished it's gender early on. But wasn't that assuming Yoshi's gender? That's really insensitive to Yoshi. But Yoshi lays eggs. Girl reptiles lay Eggs. Yoshi is a girl right? I am not too well versed on the Anatomy of Dinosaurs. But i always though girls layed the eggs in the animal kingdom? :) I am team Yoshi is a girl. :). They didnt have to put a pink bow or scream it in your face that Yoshi was a girl. It was just a non girly girl. It was very pure in essence of Nintendo. Throwing gender roles to the wind and keeping Nintendo real :). Or maybe yoshi is a blank canvas for the fans to find in Yoshi what they want to find, Thus Yoshi becomes you :D. And their is a smash melee Yoshi trophy that detials that Yoshi is Asexual. Asexual means has no desire for sex or no sexual relations. That was kinda strange for Nintendo to add. It changes nothing about the gender controversy lol. Now we need to wonder is Yoshi a Asexual girl or a Asexual boy? Or a Asexual Hermaphrodite. But thanks Nintendo for sharing that personal secret of Yoshi's on one of your most acclaimed GameCube games. I'm sure Yoshi appreciates it lol ;D What gender do you think Yoshi is. :D. |

I believe that Nintendo has addressed this. That Yoshi is a species, not a certain character. That's why there are multi-colored Yoshi's out there. And that as a species, all Yoshis can lay eggs regardless of sex. And Nintendo explained this (though I can't remember where I read it, exactly). On a related note: Birdo from Super Mario Bros. 2 (the pink guy with the bow that shoots eggs at you), is a boy that is very feminine. Truth, look it up. |

Its the same thing with the Toads. They're essentially genderless. |

I always thought that was really weird to put in there. --- Quote from: badATchaos on June 06, 2017, 07:53:41 pm ---Its the same thing with the Toads.

I always thought the Toads were kinda like Smurfs. Growing up I always referred to Yoshi as a he, but I just see them as gender-less nowadays. |
