Kuja

I dont see how someone can say Kuja is Girly.
Well let's go for a big post.
About the hair, long hair doesn't mean girly !
Im sure no one can disagree with that !
Sephiroth got long hair you ppl call him girly ?
I dont think so.
Makeup, yup Kuja has a bit of makeup but then again there is two reason that can explain this. In the animal world, predators use appearance to frighten prey. The tiger, for example, uses stripes. This is a form of psychological offense on the opponent. The red eyeshadow that Kuja wears could create a malevolent effect around his eyes, where red symbolises blood and fierceness to the subconscious mind. Anyway how do we know he wasnt born that way ?
The skin, while it it true Kuja skin is very white in some FMV. This doesn't somehow mean that he's girly. Many of FFIX's characters have pale skin. So Kuja is a tad bit whiter than the others. He's a sorcerer! He doesn't need to go out in the sun to practice magic!
The armour, This aint a boob tube or bikini or anything like that. The top thing Kuja wears is ARMOR. If you look at any picture im sure you can see, it is metallic and very plated looking underneath.
His *Half-Cape*, i have but no idea how to call it. It's the thing suspended by the belts from the hip down. The flowing cape is obviously to hide the fact that he's a genome (his tail). Why is the front bit... bare? Freedom of movement! if he was drenched in tight clothes or metallic armor around the legs too, he won't have the comfort and the speed necessary to avoid blows. He's a sorcerer and doesn't engage in close combat. Therefore speed is preferable to defense. If Kuja was clad in as much clanking plate and mail as Steiner, do you think that Kuja could levitate and move around as quickly?
Yes he wears a thong. All Alexandrian soldiers wear thongs. Ok, so argue that most of these soldiers are female. What about Blank? At least Kuja wears cape-ish thing. Blank has nothing covering his blinking white arse!
His sleeves, Kuja is a sorcerer, not a fighter, he doesn't use his arms the way Zidane does. If Kuja opted to have metallic mail all over his arms, how the hell is he supposed to balance himself with the arms being heavier than the rest of him?
Sorcery = extensive waving of arms. The sleeves add to the overall coolness of casting. He's also got some metal plate thing around his wrist. So Kuja opted for comfort, style and speed, instead of slowing down agility.
The boots, looks like it's made from light but strong material. Kuja doesn't need anything more, cos Kuja doesn't hike. He rides his Nova Dragon or cruising airship.
Kuja gear is not girly. Revealing maybe, but the style is considerate of what he does (running around to cause havoc, destroy, etc).
Sorcerers generally don't look macho anyway. Just accept that he also dresses for beauty and flair.
He is poetic, So Kuja is very poetic. Is there a problem whit that ? Kuja is not like other wild brutes who kill for no particular reason. He isn't stupid. He talks poetically, not everyone may understand. He has a grand way with words. Now some people might call that girly. Im sure some ppl here wouldnt still be using their left hand as sex partner if they were at least a little poetic.
Poetic = girly?
Are you guyz saying that we man are literary impotent ?
I never saw anyone call Shakespear girly !
Palace, Kuja palace is girly ? I dont think so. It may look very elaborate and not the usual hovel. The massiveness of the place is supposed to trap unwary and unwelcome visitors. The high ceilings, transparent staircases, puzzles and dead ends are all a huge maze within Kuja's Desert Palace. And to top it all off, the whole palace is sumberged in quicksand. You can't get anymore fortified than that. The furnishings would often reflect what kind of person you are. In this case, it's very elegant and high class, like the palaces of *powerful people*.
Girly or Intelectual ?
If you picked the first answer you just said man cant be intelectual ...
So intelectual he is !
Gender check, Kuja is undoubtedly a guy, as his creator stated. He specifically told Zidane that Kuja was his "brother", while "sister" would have been appropriate if Kuja was a girl.
He still maintains the trait of all genomes, that is the tail and the hourglass figure. Even Zidane has an hourglass figure. About the waist, if you have a waist like that you could be a guy, girl or a it, you'd most likely want to show it off.
Love, when kuja say "I must say...I truly love you all."
Im sure anyone decent enought to understand what this mean will know it s nothing sexual it's about Zidane party having done stuff for Kuja. After all they did do everything Kuja planned.
Also, "Yes, an act from a beautiful play... There is a knight on a white horse... ...and a beautiful princess. It is a tale of tragic love. Overcome by grief, the princess must sleep for a hundred years..." (Alexandria Castle)
The white knight is Zidane and the princess is Garnet, so in no way it even refer to Kuja.
Well here it conclude my post enjoy the reading.
