Try reading the actual quote instead of reaing one word. Also read his quote about the rumor was that the character was not link. Not whether or not link was defined as male or female. In that same exact quote he says the same thing. He never once said that link was defined as a male, nor did he say link could be percieved as a female. He said the exact opposite. Again learn to read.

LINK IS HIM!!! You don't get to just cross out the main point supporting that he's a guy. "Him" is literally the only word that matters. HE EXPLICITELY CALLS LINK A GUY. What about the same quote where he says that the rumor has taken off to the point where "people are saying it's a FEMALE character?" That isn't "one word" and he very clearly states that the player being a female character is a rumor that rose becauseof his joke. A rumor. If Link's gender was up to the player, Aonuma would say "Link is not a he or a she, because Link's gender is up to the player." Aonuma literally says the same think about Link being the avatar in every game, and in every game, Link has still been a guy. He's saying that Link is a guy, but don't pay attention to that because this is your adventure through Link's shoes. If Aonuma really cared about "representing the player," there would be no Link, and the "player character" would be customizable. Gamespot clearly says that Aonuma doesn't people to think about Link's gender, which is male, because Link represents the player. He doesn't want the fact that Link is a male to get in the way of the player playing the game as if the player where him. I'm black. Aonuma isn't telling me that "Link is really black for you because he's supposed to represent the characteristics you apply to him and him being black is for you to decide." No, it isn't up to me to decide. Link is fair skinned. Link is male.

I've literally never seen someone so profusely refuse to accept factual evidence. You're literally rotting my mind.

The only thing that matters is the context of what he was saying. He said very clearly that the character not being link was a rumor. All he said about being female was that many people thought it was a female and the rumor took off from there. He never once said it wasn't Nor did he say definitively that it was male. What he did say definitively several times was that it was entirely up to the player to decide. This fact that you keep continually ignoring. No he doesn't say the same thing every time. In the past he he definitively claimed link as male. After all this is the first time there has been any confusion over the fact and he said clearly several times that it was intentional because he wants the player to decide. What about that is so hard to understand? I've actually accepted all the evidence. You on the other hand blatantly ignore all the evidence and focus on one word that doesn't show up in any other interview. You are rotting your own mind by refusing ro accept reality and ignoring the facts in front of you. Again read this http://www.gamespot.com/articles/e3-2014-the-legend-of-zelda-producer-confirms-the-hero-is-link-is-male/1100-6420451/ How many times do you need to be proven wrong? Are you just going to keep flaming with nonsense? Or are you going to actually read what the man said for once and accept the fact that links gender is up to the player to decide as the man has said time and time again?
