Why would you think that? You know that they wouldn't do anything like that being so direct about it.

Harley is named Hal in the Japanese version of the game. The developers did not try very hard to emphasize her feminine side.

The problem with her is that she will never have a much stronger attack than a magic user because all of her weapons are classified as weapons that magic users use, so she will share their attack power no matter what. Additionally, she does not have particularly high strength and Izayoi probably outperforms her when it comes to damaging with Whips.
