DAMN IT! Final Fight's Poison is a tranny photo

Yoshinori Ono, producer of Street Fighter IV, was interviewed for the latest issue of EGM on their big SF IV blow out issue. Among the many questions Ono was asked, EGM wanted to find out whether Final Fight's Poison is really a girl or a guy:

"Let's set the record straight: In North America, Poison is officially a post-op transsexual," Ono reveals. "But in Japan, she simply tucks her business away in order to look like a girl."

I was all into the SF IV preview in EGM until that bomb shell smacks me in the face. I just found out about the gender confusion from the latest ScrewAttack video (Top 10 hos). I didn't think too much of it though. I just shrugged it off and just wanted to continue on with my fantasies. But now Ono has ruined everyone's dream of Poison.

At least we have some hot cosplayers to make up for this tranny ordeal (who are hopefully naturally born women).

If she's that hot, I don't give a shit if she used to be a guy, she's a woman now in my mind. (Traps still have theirs.) So...fap fap fap.

Yeah, I haven't felt this awkward since I found out the girl from Rage Racer (Reiko Nagase) was totally based on a dude's likeness.

Wait a sec...post-op you say. Technically she is still fappable material then.

Are there some Crying Game type scenes in between beating the shit out of people in Street Fighter I don't know about? Because otherwise, why is this the sort of character detail they'd be writing? O_o


Also, if anyone's a tranny in the SF cast, it's Chun-Li.

The cosplayers in front of urinals should have set off some warning bells.

I actually created a profile in order to say something, but there's really nothing I can say about this. Your responses don't surprise me at all, sadly.

The orange-haired chicm who's a palette swap is still fair game for hetero male fantasies, however. And lesbian ones, too.

Wow, some of the responses were kind of sad, but I knew they would happen. Others really surprised me, and that makes me happy.

Anybody who says that they are saddened or disappointed by the responses here, to this article, about a fictional character probably needs to lighten up a bit.

Yes transsexuals are people too, and yes gender is about much more than what you've got between your legs. But y'know what, people still make jokes based on others sexuality whether they be female, male, gay, straight, bi or in this case trans-gendered. So get over it, and quit being so damn righteous.

As long as she still has an ass like that, there's still a hole to stick it in.
