I remember reading an E3 interview a long time ago where they asked Matsuno if Final Fantasy leads were becoming more feminine as time went on and he responded by saying something like only are they effeminite in the West and not other places so it's a cultural difference.
Anyway, I could find the link and prove it but I'm lazy so just assume I'm telling the truth or made the whole thing up.
Either way, Americans are just crazy with their manly images because society here is pretty warped in forcing you to like only certain things, such as boys can only like a certain kind of music and it's all rather limiting etc. etc. heyhey and all that.
Anyway, when you get older and grow out of your everythingphobia phase you'll look back and it won't even bother you. When I was I like 12 I thought Ramza looked like a fool and now I play FFT and appreciate the art style of it and really don't consider it much. Age has a way of making you all trippy... Now I'm only 20 now so I'm not trying to go arrogant old man on you all, but then again yeah I am.
