Ok... in the American Version... they dubbed Zoisite to sound like a girl, but in the Japanese version... it's a guy...
So... is Zoisite a gay guy?

I'm not sure about the manga, but in the anime, he has a relationship with Kunzite as well. That's exactly the reason why dubbing companies, evil as they are, changed him into a girl. Don't get me wrong, he pretty much acts like a sissy most of the time, but there's simply no chest ... |

Well, I knew that Sailor Neptune and Uranius were a lesbian couple... but I didn't know there were more gay couples in the show lol.
And they turned them into cousins... so it doesn't surprise me that they gave Zoisite a sex change. haha.
It's kind of sick though..

Zoicite was not homosexual in the manga. Well, it's not exactly a matter of choice. Especially when you're a made-up character in an anime show. |

I think that DiC (the animation company that dubs the north american version of SM) gave Zoisite the sex change because they didn't want people to think that they were inferring that homosexuals are evil. That kind of thing can touch off a real shitstorm here in the U.S.

Is it wrong for lesbians to both wear skirts? |

It's okay for them because they're both good guys (gals). Of course, but I was talking about the fact that DiC changed them into cousins in the NA version. |

Whoa!!! Hold up!!! They were supposed to be cousins in the NA version? I never caught that when I watched the dub, but I did feel a lesbian vibe.

Even Moon said it before she was supposed to know. In an episode where they get their hands chained together, they were in their Senshi form, and this is before she found out who Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune were she Told Sailor Uranus that she should go help her cousin. . . and again, this was BEFORE she found out who they really were. . . and not once did they say that they were cousins in their senshi form, nor did they say who they really were. . . |
