Dude Looks Like a Lady, an article about how Sheik made Princess Zelda awesome, and transgenderism.

I still feel mildly guilty for disliking OoT!Zelda and liking Sheik. But I do like pretty much every other female character (hell, every other character) in the goddamn games. I think I just hate wise, sage types - I hate Rauru, too. XD; Stop telling me what to do, dammit! Don't you understand I want to be a Gerudo!

But seriously. 'What fun is a princess who saves herself?'? A WHOLE LOT MORE FUN THAN A PRINCESS WHO IS IN ANOTHER CASTLE, KTHX.

Although given my love for Princess Toadstool, too, perhaps I am not the person to say this.

Today was... arse, in a word. I'm so sick of just not knowing things, but there's not time to rectify my lack of knowledge in any structured way, so I'm left running around begging answers of people when all I want to do is sit down and work my way through a syllabus. |D; Bah, humbug. I can has checkout chick position nao?

"Don't you understand I want to be a Gerudo!"

That's my thing!! You gots your Sheikah!

Zelda is awesome when she's not going at a ridiculously slow pace, and GASPING every three seconds. >=( TP!Zelda was awesome. Tetra!Zelda was awesome. ...you never really see much of the other Zeldas in the other games I've played... It was just...THE GASPING!

*lol* Maybe that's why I love Daisy; she's never in another castle!

See, this is the thing. I dislike the Sage Zeldas who do very little. I AM QUITE OKAY WITH TETRA AND WITH TP!ZELDA, WHO ACTUALLY APPEARED TO BE IN SOME KIND OF DANGER.

Now I just have this image of Daisy. In ur castles, orderin ur mushrooms around.

I am ever a fan of spunk and strength, and the serene, 'perfect' women bore me to tears.

And, when she gets a free moment, sticking her head out the window and yelling "HI I'M DAISY!"

Amen to that. :D

Sean at work loves her almost as much as you do; it is kind of hilarious.

^_^ Cool article.

I like the quote "In ceasing to be strictly male or female, Sheik is free to simply be a person."

Very cool ideas.

It's very true. ♥ This is probably the other reason I love Sheik so much.
