Gone Gonzo  Posts: 4549 Joined: 25 Feb 2008    | The Pyro is neither Man nor Woman. It is the last remainant of a secret military project to build a series of genetically engineered super soldiers. The last of it's kind, bred for combat, built for war. The last, best hope against the menace of the Spies... ...MFFFFNMMPFFFMMMRRRMMM!!!... |

Yeah your right, but I thought it was funny, also, it means that when they explain it in assassins creed 2 (or as i suspect assassins _ _ _ _) I want everyone to know I called it! Some women are flat chested, but not many, so I don't think the pyro is a woman, I would just like it. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1332 Joined: 22 Aug 2008     | theres also the speculation about a purse in the Pyros locker.. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1670 Joined: 31 Mar 2008    | I'm still under the opinion that the Pyro is a guy, a very disturbed guy with an over enthusiasm for pyrotechnics, but a guy nevertheless. If the Pyro really was a she, I imagine that deathkittin's initial assessment of her being a "punk arsonist" wouldn't be to far off. Still, I guess we really aren't going to know for sure until the "grand revealing" when (and if) the Pyro finally takes off that gas mask in "Meet the Pyro". Besides, revealing that the Pyro has been a chick all along seems to much like a "jump the shark" moment, which just isn't Valve's style. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 3266 Joined: 1 Nov 2007    | I think it would be cool as hell if it turned out the Pyro was a women...but I don't think we'll ever know. It would destroy the mystery of the Pyro. But still... |

actually women played a lot more of a military role in ancient histroy than they do now its quite regressive with reguards to today and this was the time of physical sword/axe brutality |

... I may be more open to the idea of a female Pyro than I was a minute ago... |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 4269 Joined: 13 Aug 2008   | Humourous fifth option... Away! I think the Pyro is a symbiotic organism made up of multitudes of Crabs all working as one to create the illusion of a human form, two of the crabs in the head area are tasked with replicating the human voice, something they have yet to perfect. |

I hope that bra is as protective as the "original" pyro suit. |

You mean like Calypso in Pirates of the Carribean? User was banned for: Poll: What is your opinion on the Metal Gear Solid storylines?. (Permanent) |

I have no idea who that is. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1670 Joined: 31 Mar 2008 |
I may be wrong here, I'm assuming Calypso is a person made out of crabs...
That pic is probably meant to be the Pyro half out of the trademark flame-retardant suit, not a replacement. At least I hope so. The only benefit that would have is that the guys on the other team would be so distracted that they wouldn't even be able shoot anything :D |

Right. It would probably help if I had actually seen Pirates of the Carribean. |
Muckraker  Posts: 281 Joined: 7 Dec 2007  | i don't know. i personally think of him as male because he is my favorate charicter i usually visualize him as a kind of degraded skinny slack jawed type charicter which was the only one stupid enough to volinteer to handle the dangerious and deadly chemicals. ya know the skinny lanky guy that works as the garbage man because some one has got to do it. |
On the Record  Posts: 5674 Joined: 2 Dec 2007    | I hope its gender is never known or told. Whenever Valve get around to: Meet The Pyro, I hope it's muffles all the way. But, if it is a girl, she's my type of lady. BURN IT ALL! |
Beat Writer  Posts: 170 Joined: 8 Oct 2008  | The whole speculation about the pyro being a girl is because in the map ctf_2forts, there are the team lockers. You can see bits of uniform for most of them in separate lockers(i.e. the Heavy's bullet wrap around his chest, another one of the Sniper's hats.) Though on one locker, there's an extra gas mask for the Pyro, and a purse with a flower on it in the same locker. They say |

The voice actor for Bart Simpson is a girl. Shocking, isn't it. |
Beat Writer Posts: 157 Joined: 22 Jan 2009 | It will ever have a gender, you know kinda like bulbasaur or cupcakes. |

No. They've never confirmed the Pyro's gender (and they never will). They have referred to the Pyro as both "he" and "she" at various times. |
Paperboy  Posts: 30 Joined: 21 Aug 2009    | In all honesty, I hope the Pyro's true identity will always be a mystery. Part of what makes the Pyro such a great character is his/her ambiguous gender, and if that were to be given away, it would kind of ruin the whole thing. |

oh, so there fucking with us. |
Beat Writer  Posts: 153 Joined: 24 Apr 2009 | The pyro is Frank Mc whatsisface from The Wasp Factory. If that dosent clear it up, read more. |

Valve always does that with its fans. |
Muckraker  Posts: 307 Joined: 14 Jul 2009   | It could very possible be male or female, I mean, they have a pretty pink handbag, but it could mean he is a cross dresser. I just hope it's a British character, cos we are lacking on someone with a good accent from the homeland. xD |

Yeah but that was set in the 3rd Crusades. Of course he didn't expect a woman to hold her own in a fight. Everyone believed woman's place was in the home... ... not to say they do now
Anyway on topic, Pyro is a man, check the suit. Even if "she" did have a sports bra on "her" chest wouldn't be flat.
