well im wondering what do you think quina is

[tidus2147]

its quite a conundrum mr.nosebleed maybe zidane doesnt know either

[Rantz]

If Quina even has a gender, I'd say female. But we cannot even be sure the Qu clan is divided into genders.

[Xurts]

I always refer to Quina as a female. Technically, you can call it either, because Quina's gender is never specificed in the game.

[Slade]

I still don't understand how people see him as a female but anyhow......I always refer to him as a male. But he really has no gender so therefor, he's both.

[chronic_Maniac]

Its both!!

[Sefie1999AD]

I wish this poll had the "neither" choice because I think s/he's neither male nor female. However, if I had to choose, I guess I'd say s/he's a she.

[Cruise Control]

Well, it's not a female, when using protect girls, nobody blocks for Quina.

[Quindiana Jones]

She's neither, not both.

Although between boy and girl I reckon she's a girl. That'd make the main characters 4 boys and 4 girls.

[The Hubsta]

It wears clothes that can only otherwise be applied to females though.

[auhin]

Female.Acts like one, looks like one...

[Thorn]

I'd say Neither. And because there isn't an option:tongue: , no vote.

[No.78]

I still don't understand how people see him as a female but anyhow......I always refer to him as a male. But he really has no gender so therefor, he's both.

I still don't see how people see it as a MALE! It's very feminine... I always refer to it as a she, I mean for a start, Quina itself sounds like a female name. But I guess they're genderless...


Well, it's not a female, when using protect girls, nobody blocks for Quina.

Good Point, so she's definetly genderless then.

[Quindiana Jones]

I always thought Zidane did block for her.

[I Am Stoner]

I dunno so I said both.

[YTDN]

I voted both, because that's what s/he is.

[crayzee gamr]

I voted both. Quina is a hermaphrodite to the max. :D

[Crossblades]

I always considered Quina a male

[f f freak]

I always considered it as a female because it was a cook for some reason. Plus it wears clothes that look Feminine.

[Quindiana Jones]

That's a bit sexist.

[f f freak]

What because I said about it being a cook? And so what it just reminded me of a woman because it was a cook and the apron looked feminine.

[Moon Rabbits]

Neither.

[Quindiana Jones]

What because I said about it being a cook? And so what it just reminded me of a woman because it was a cook and the apron looked feminine.

Much better, monsieur :D


I reckon she looks like a female aswell (especially in the hentai) but I already know that she was made to be unisex.

[f f freak]

Much better, monsieur
That is incredibly insulting. Also both of the things I posted are exactly the same but just worded a little differently.

[Quindiana Jones]

Insulting? How?

"I always considered it as a female because it was a cook" is very different from "it reminded me of a woman because it was a cook and the apron looked feminine". You changed the wording which made it much better. Don't read so far into things.

[f f freak]

The wording makes it exactly the same.

[Araciel]

it's an it...

:lol: You frickin' comedian! Wouldn't that qualify as bestiality?

[auhin]

Haha. Quina hentai? I'm sorry, but I want to see that. XD
J/K, but Quina is the best heroine in FF. QuinaxVivi forever.

[boys from the dwarf]

at one point zidane refers to quina as a he but throughthe game after that point quina is refered to as s/he but ive somehow thought that "she" suited quina more but im not sure. i just consider quina an it. both male and female or neither of them.

[DarkLadyNyara]

Hermaphrodite.

when is that? I don't recall.

Yes....hehe....it was all a joke....hehe *wipes brow*

I think I'll not go into an all out discussion about the different categories of porn, and how something qualifies as that particular bit. However, Quina isn't an animal so nope, not bestiality :D

[FightClubFan#47]

Female.Acts like one, looks like one...

You hang out with some odd females.

I say neither. Don't they reproduce asexually?

Sounds like if you wanted to, you could do so quite authoritatively, though. :p
Not an animal, but not far from it either.

[Quindiana Jones]

Hehe....oh look! A giant evil chicken! *flees*

[farplaner]

Hehe....oh look! A giant evil chicken! *flees*

*watches Quin flee.

I'm not falling for that one.

*from inside chicken beak..."What!? I thought you were trying to pull a fast one!!"



....I wonder if this would be considered off-topic.

[Quindiana Jones]

Yes, it probably could. I'll draw it back to topic so Leeza doesn't tell me off again :love:

Quina = Not girl. Not boy. Though she/he (sounds like Michael Jackson) is more feminine than masculine.

['Gilgamesh']

I've always seen Quina as a female.

[Zeromus_X]

Quina always seemed feminine to me. :cat:

[DarkLadyNyara]

Quina always seemed feminine to me. :cat:

This is Final Fantasy. That means nothing. :D

[farplaner]

I have to disagree with you there. According to one of Webster's many definitions for the word, "that" means: the person, thing, or idea indicated, mentioned, or understood from the situation.

(what can I say, I'm hopeless) ....um wait! I'm on topic, see:

Quina's gender, or lack thereof, will most likely go down in history as one of those unsolved mysteries. Maybe Robert Stack will do a show about it someday...

[Quindiana Jones]

Quina always seemed feminine to me. :cat:

Actually it does.

[~SapphireStar~]

I did see Quina as a demale because of er outfit, but I dont know I just imagined a male voice!

[DarkLadyNyara]

Quina always seemed feminine to me. :cat:

This is Final Fantasy. That means nothing. :D


Actually it does.

Let me put it this way- there are a sizeable number of final fantasy characters who are a hell of a lot more feminine than Quina, but who are actually male. :D Kuja being a prime example. (My avatar is another. :p )

[Quindiana Jones]

Oh right you meant it like that! In that case, you're right. Sorry :D

[ScottNUMBERS]

She is male.

[TehAnima]

Female

[QuinnQuin]

In my opinion I believe Quina to be asexual--neither male nor female. As no "female" Qu's were introduced in the game. Also--and correct me if I'm wrong--I don't remember Quina ever mentioning its parents.

As Qu's are native to swamps, it is my belief that they lay some sort of egg, as the majority of swamp-dwelling creatures do. Also, as far as a form of "mating" goes, evidence--not proof--lies in their affinity for eating. As the body's most basic needs include sex, eating, and shelter it would make sense for eating to become more favored if one could not mate. Like mating and exercise, eating causes the body to release into its system endorphens and other pharamones and chemicles which produce positive and euphoric feelings...which is why people binge when under stress or depression.

But then again, maybe I'm just over-analyzing.

Kupo!

[Moon Rabbits]

Not another one of these threads. :eep:


She is male.

Best description of Quina ever.

[Psychotic]

A second account.

[Christmas]

Quina is LITTLE MANUS. They belong to the same species. :bigsmile:

[farplaner]

But then again, maybe I'm just over-analyzing.

Kupo!

The best bit of analysis in your post. ^




She is male.

Best description of Quina ever.

agreed :D

[Clord]

It is possible that they some point naturally lay eg. Eggs and then appear more Qu or maybe they use mist to do so.

[Whitemage~101]

Well, it's not a female, when using protect girls, nobody blocks for Quina.
I have had Zidane block for Quina, but in the game they call Quina either a s/he or him, so I think it's a male.

[Laddy]

Quina is a girl, beacuase SHE was blocked by Zidane, and if they made a remake of FFIX for PS2 or PS3 (DO IT SQUENIX!) SHE'D have a fat bizarre female voice, i bet. Quina is a LADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! I always reffered to HER as a SHE!

[Bolivar]

Let's look at the facts for this:

Quina can wear Tiaras. Only female characters can do this.

On the flip side

Lamia's confusion spell, I'm pretty sure, only affects males, as it's a type of seduction thing. I have had Quina be affected by it.

there are several times when they refer to Quina as a him or he instead of s/he.

According to previous posters, Quina has been Covered by Zidane.

So obviously the answer is confusing, it would be easy to just assume it has no gender, although Qu's should have gender as Vivi referred to Quan as Grandpa, not Grandma or grandp/ma...

One interesting note is that Gogo in FFVI was referred to as the same way, its sex was unknown.

[Shadow Masamune]

Male, though ladies are traditionally thought of as cooks, the best chef's are male, the master's and make it a profession.

Quina, Male, showing off to the ladies what he can do with his tongue. And what woman always has her eyes on her stomach. He's male, not caring about anything other than food. How to please a man, keep him fed...

[LoKuS]

I think male.

[RiseToFall]

Boys have penises.
Girls have vaginas.
Quina has both.
Any questions?

[Laddy]

Uh...yes...Quina...is a LADY! Quina is wearing a tiara, dress, and i got HER to use a a female-only EARRING SET!!!!!!!!!!! GOD, THE NERVE!

[Acid Raine]

Uh...yes...Quina...is a LADY! Quina is wearing a tiara, dress, and i got HER to use a a female-only EARRING SET!!!!!!!!!!! GOD, THE NERVE!

Word of advice: Let the people say what they want.......if not....its a one way ticket to getting banned. Newbies are especially vulernable

Okay.......so thats 19 words.......

Anyways, I dont think Quina has a gender. Qus are androgynous genderless creatures. I dont know WHY people insist on giving it a gender.

If it HAS to have one, Id say male. Only because, while they say s/he, they say HIM instead of her.

[DarkLadyNyara]

Yeah, I second that. And saying "GOD, THE NERVE!", and typing in all caps just makes you look childish.

Exactly. :D While English doesn't have a gender neutral pronoun, I think Japanese does. (but I'm not sure.) Quina's gender is meant to be ambiguous. I say again, I think Quina is a hermaphrodite.

[Acid Raine]

While English doesn't have a gender neutral pronoun.

*cough* it...they.....you.....me....us....them......

[DarkLadyNyara]

While English doesn't have a gender neutral pronoun.

*cough* it...they.....you.....me....us....them......

Alright, that was badly worded. I meant as an alternative to he or she. None of those fly except maybe they, and even that is stretching. Granted, "it" might work, but meh, the point stands. (Besides, it's considered insulting.)

Rephrase- There is no real, accepted english alternative to he/she.
