Pfft! I mean it's only logical that because it's aimed at kids, all characters are hecterosexuals, plus Sonic is 15 and Amy is 12. :roll:

Hecterosexuals. Those among us who are sexually attracted only to people named Hecter.

Better than Meterosexuals. People sexually attracted only to the little Helmet enemies from the Megaman series.

I have new info on how the origins should go. Sonic will be a genetic experiment, think Shadow 2.0, created by Eggman. Sonic won't have any speed until an accident that turn the two into what they are today. Reply with more

I've got better origins - <i>none whatsoever</i>. We don't need to know where Sonic came from. We don't need to know he had a mom, or a dad, or if he was a genetic experiment. We don't need a logical explanation for him to exist.

Sonic is a badass. He doesn't take no shit from no nobody, and he lives for the thrills of life. That's all we need to know. If Sonic needed a backstory, he would've been given one in Sonic 1 - and all we got was "Sonic and Eggman have been fighting for as long as anyone can remember, and nobody knows why".

Concerning Sonic's parents (or anyone else's), I don't care if they're mentioned, just don't have some ridiculous plot of them coming back to life or something like that. And no cheap deaths, they irk me to NO end.

You know, I'm not quite sure why Sonic is often seen homosexually involved with Tails. I suppose it's natural to take the innocence away from what is essentially a brotherly friendship and turn it into something more... perverse.
So you're saying that the fact that <B>a love song</B> is playing while Tails saves Sonic at the end of Sonic 2, with the music <B>climaxing when Sonic looks at Tails</B> from on the plane, has no importance whatsoever?

Look beyond the friggin' surface!

Love song? Okay. Love song? Seriously? I think you're reading way too much into that ending.

And not that it has anything to do with it, but in the Japanese version of the series Tails has always been female, so the notion of a homosexual relationship invented solely for the purpose of the American audience is, how can I put this, moronic. Being that USA is the homophobe capital of the world, I mean.

No, really, the ending to Sonic 2 is vocal-less version of a Dreams Come True love song.

Well, how about that. The idea of a homosexual relationship created for the American public alone is still moronic, but I will admit that the love song dealy is weird.

Various Internet sites and forum comments. Could be wrong of course, since I can't read Japanese to verify it myself, but it seems odd that so very many people would claim it as a fact if it wasn't.

Knuckles is a girl too, because she's pink.

Tails has always been voiced by a female, but he's all man, baby. Errr, all male-fox, at least.

Tails is voiced by a female because he hasn't hit puberty yet. Most pre-pubescent animated boys are have female VAs.

A sarcastic quote response implying a predisposition towards childish assumptions of naivety.

So through this witty response you are implying that I am incorrect in thinkin the Japanese Tails is female. Furthermore you insult my intelligence for thinking so.

I like it. It's good irony for me to be the butt of the joke after I made fun of that other guy. Turnabout is fair play, so I have been owned fair and square.

EDIT: To Crazy Penguin, I mean. Slow typing really messes up the order of these threads.

I think Tails was a girl in the Japanese Sonic 2 manual, and then Sonic Team changed him to male in all regions after that. S'what I heard, anyway.

I remember when I first got Sonic 2 for the Game Gear, I got into this big argument with my cousin because he kept insisting that Tails was a girl.

It's probably because he's a Canadian. :lol:

He probably just wanted to justify his anal-rape fantasies.

Yeah, I see that a lot, if you do a bit of research you'll find it's true.
