I didn't see a thread on this yet so I figure a debate can't hurt. What do you think Pyro's gender is? Honestly, I don't think it has a gender, it's just a Pyro. The suggestions on the home page varies randomly from "give him a shot" and "give her a shot" when it shows the Pyro. Sure, the Pyro has a purse, but it also sounds like a man and is built like a man. :eyebrow:

I'm sure Valve doesn't even know or care, and it will never be revealed. If you don't already know, when asked about "Meet the Pyro", Robin Walker said the video will be the world through the Pyro's eyes, so we will more than likely only see a mentally insane person burning everyone ( W + M1 :stupid: ) and nothing to reveal the gender. Anyone have any retorts?

I find it amusing how nobody has taken the time to realize that the pyro is just A FLAMBOYANTLY GAY MAN.
That explains the bulge, voice, and the purse.

Hes a psychopath with a hankering for fire, but happens to like "Gone with the wind" and any movie with Judy Garland

Had it covered, Agent lol. That's why I lean towards "neither", I don't think Valve even knows or cares.

the pyro is clearly an elder god from wherever Crocket is from.

So referring to what bamf said the pyro is some sort of Eldritch Abomination of a embodiment of an elder god of fire to the north America state of Oklahoma, and if thats the case why the hell do we get two instances of rain and a month of over 107 degrees for the entire month, short amount of rain and only two fires that started where i was from and where my forest and walking location was ablaze?

It'll never be revealed. When Meet the Pyro comes out, you wont get to see its face, and everyone will be pissed. What do you expect? It is Valve..

I heard one theory that he is a Frankenstein-like monster, built just months before TF2 started. Of course, this is probably not true, but still.
