Mmm... I'll have to go with number two.. He always felt like a boy. For a number of reasons... like, I don'tthink Zidane would be that rude to a girl no matter how dense she was.

Well I thought Quina was a girl but not to the extent I'd say she defiantely was... I mean, she wears a dress and Quina sounds more like a girl's name...

Quina sounds like a unisex name, to me :3

Maybe. I guess Quina also could be both I kinda like to think she's a girl cos then the main party would have 4 guys and 4 girls. FF8 was made around the same time and it's fair, 3 guys 3 girls. Other FF games are a bit sexist, FF7 has 6 guys and 3 girls and FFX 4 guys and 3 girls

But at the end of 5 its like Bartz and then all these chicks! I know Quna is an it and it speaks to itslef in 3rd person, but beacuase we are raised by our culture to place a gender on people and creatures, I always went for she. She just seemed like a mornoic woman to me

Yeah she did, her mannerisms seemed more like a girl would do than a boy (well maybe a very camp boy...)

I just couldn't think a girl could be that.... stupid, lol. I also agree with Hypes about the whole Gender thing *nods*
FFVIIIhad four girls... Edea. FF has always had three girls in the party (except for VIII... another reason why I don't like it, huh.) so that's another reason why I thought Quina would be a boy.

Why isn't this thread about Zidane!!! *bops R on the head with the angel bless* D<
Lol, love the poll.
I always thought of her and as Nueter. I mean... Zidane's 'Protect girls' never protected Quina (I don't think he ever protected my Freya either.... ) So thats one strike against that...but on the boy side... I mean Vivi's grandpa wore more masculine clothes... where as everything about quina to me shouted woman.
So... in the end I started to think of it as more of a, their race doesn't have gender specifics. They could be either or in our eyes, but simply be them, no gender to themselves.
Either that or she's a hermaphrodite.

Teheheee, I has to make the post funny in some way, lol.
Yeah, that's another thing, Zidane never guarded for Quina. I can remember him guarding for Freija though... lol I remember laughing and saying to the T.V. "Freija doesn't need your guarding >< " Hehe, I bet in FFIX reality, Freija probably wouldn't mind :3

Now I think about it Quina probably is both >.< And I meant in the main squad on 8 there's 3 girls, 3 guys. Otherwise you'd have to include Edea (who is really just a replacement for Rinoa), Seifer, Laguna, Kiros and Ward

You never have to include Kiros, Ward, Laguna, and Edea! NEVER! ...seriously, the Laguna flashbacks were so pointless... In fact, 8 as a whole was pointless...

Maybe it's not as good as FFIX or some of the others but it isn't a rubbish game.

"Explaining ninja to non ninja is like explaining final fantasy 8 to a lemon..." - The ninja from askaninja.com
I still dont understand 8. I played through it and then someone was like Ultimicea is Rinoa from the future and I was like WTF?

...Okay, lol. Rinoa sure did... alright. She annoyed me. I never finsihed that game... but i remember when I would play it, my dad would watch me and ask "Who's Rhino-A?" sarcastically, lol.

I used to hate Rinoa, but I don't mind her much now. I haven't completed 8 sadly (it's a bit long...) And it isn't specifically said that Ultimecia is Rinoa. It's open to interpretation. I don't think she is but that's me >.<
