--- Quote from: Kjesta on July 30 2006, 01:19 am ---Before someone in a fanfiction entitled Fye as 'girlish' I'd never have thought of him being effeminate o.O" Gayish, yes, but still very male at the same time. So I just don't understand everyone ranting on and on about him being so female >-<"

--- End quote ---
I agree. I don't picture Fai as girly at all. One of my pet peeves is when people write/draw Fai in a woman's outfit (ie a miniskirt) No offense to those who draw/write Fai like that, but making Fai so feminine and womanly to me kinda ruins it. Fai is definitely a guy, despite the fact that he is maybe a little more... flamboyant than most. I don't know what I am talking about anymore, except that I don't like Fai in drag or portrayed as this uberpansy girl, even though he is the "mommy", he is still a man. The end.

Jeannette:
That female!Fai fic is here. It's good as far as it goes. But yeah, I agree- Fai is a man, and very much so. Most female!Fai stuff gets on my nerves. I'ver read very little that's worthwhile.

Kjesta:
Ah, I know that fic. I have to say I don't like it very much. Or any female!Fye stories at all. It's just the fact they're both male that gives their relationship the saucy little touch it needs to be perfect.

If Fye was a woman, there would be a lot less tension in everything that happens between them. Here you always have to keep in mind: what if they actually got together? What would Syaoran and Sakura think? Can they afford at all to be involved with each other? What will happen if they come together? They whole stuff that comes in naturally if you have a love between two characters of the same gender. It's just a whole lot different if a boy and a girl become a couple or two mature enough men who both have their stories.

Sanmine:
Thanks for the link Jeanette. I've never actually come across anything with female!Fai, and I would be interested to see whether it would work. I dunno, maybe I'm way off about them working as a het couple...

Edit:
That was a little different from what I expected. It was good but something did feel... a little off. Maybe I've been reading too much slash lately. Bad fangirl. There is no such thing.

Spoonful:
*pops in late*

What I think is funny about femme!Fay is that if Fay was a girl, it would be an absolute given that (s)he and Kurogane would end up together, what with their interaction. But I agree, there's always just something that bugs me about Fay crossdressing. It just...doesn't look right. (Besides, if Fay was a girl, he'd probably be a lot less entertaining. There are a lot of girls that act like him, but not many guys, so that's kind of what makes it so appealing, too. To me at least.)
