He isn't alone on the androgynous boat, but he definately was one of the first on board and still has the best games.

Along with about 1/5 of the messages showing "[This message was deleted at the request of a moderator or administrator]"... just reminds you how homophobic the video game fandom is too.

Well, in my opinion whereas the SW2001 Link looked like a girl, the Twilight Princess Link is the least androgenous he's every been (cyrano de bergerac nose in some rendeitions notwithstanding), and also the most ethnic Japanese he's ever looked.

Pretty much. The other day I was outside and almost died from a sudden gust of fart blowing leaves everywhere. I don't have any Link hentai. I have some images of him being very fem looking, though. Does that count, internet? DOES THAT COUNT?

No.  Femme =/= hentai.  Explicit sex = hentai.
I saw some Link/Zelda hentai once.  It was pretty lame. :<

I think the Twighlight Princess version of link is at least the second-most androgynous, though I agree the Spaceworld version is the other main contender.  Uh, I don' t know I was all crazy for this topic when I first heard about it, but now I find I don't really have anything to say.  It's just funny.

Edit: went to Gamespot, I can't believe how intolerant the reaction is.  I don't think Out even claimed Link was homosexual or anything, they just called him hot.  Sheesh!
That's my opinion, not yours.

I have to dispute this. In my opinion, Space World 2001 Link is actually subtly masculine because, again in my non-expert opinion, he actually starts to look Japanese in this game. And compared to a japanese ethnic standard, he looks more like a Japanese male than a Japanese female.

That said, Link seems to still have a couple Twilight Princess glamour shots though that accentuate his eyebrows, so there's definitely room for discussion.

Link needs a beard.

End of story.

"Link needs a beard."

But that would mean that Link was grown up and therefore mature.
we'll save that version of link for when Nintendo goes 3rd party and releases a "M" rated Zelda game on a Sony console. [/bad joke]
