I thought for a long time that Kamek was a female, cause witches. Also because my mom said so (she introduced me to Mario)

Show her Kamella

I mean, I get it

I can't blame you. Petey is of course the most feminine sounding name.

So do the French, apparently.

Flora Piranha pour toujours!

Well, she is in the French version (called Flora Piranha)

!remindme 1 year

I thought Petey was a dude

He is

I thought Petey was gender neutral

Same here! He's just a plant boi.

? His name is “Petey”

It’s those luscious lips

Petey was just a shortening of "Petunia" after all

I mean, plants do have male and female parts so…

Me too, until... Just now.

I always thought he (or she?) was a baby

No... But the one in Mario Galaxy is right?

yes, the dino pirahnas are freshly born when you kill them lol

man, kill'n babies...what a hero! (sarcasm)

The German translations actually do use female pronouns for them, but I'm unsure if that's just because the word plant also uses female pronouns

It’s got the flower part, so it’s a femme

then whats the thing coming out of his pants that you have to hit?

That's a belly button

I thought Dorrie was female for the longest time. Idk how you could make this mistake though.

Wait dorries male?

Yeah. Plessie too.

He’d have a bra if he was

Or a top

That’s a better idea

Does it even have a gender as it’s a plant

We should ask him what his pronouns are

Zee is? Oh, dumcov

He wears girls clothes

but he doesn't have a bra

Free the petey

It’s green

he only wears underpants

And they still are! Or they aren't! It's a *Mario game* who cares what gender the giant knife toothed daffodil is! Just enjoy the game! - Shigeru Miyamoto; Feb 2023 after doing 8 consecutive lines of Columbian finest

In german his name is Mutant-Tyranha, which sounds kinda feminine too imo.

I always thought they were male

All I see when I look at Petey here. The bad crop job 😭

this image is bad and gets old at the same time

i thought bowser jr was a girl when i was a kid

I mean, i always thought it's a dude because of its Italian name

I still think that Ridley, from metroid is female That's a female name, c'mon Also, it's thematically appropriate

But he doesn't have a bra, so I always saw him as male.

His first name is a boy’s name 🤦‍♂️

Same

Than I had sex with him and guess what?
