Gender

In the class suggestion area of the TF2 main menu (right upper corner) pyro is being referred to as "her".

Why don't you give her a shot?

I consider this to be quite a confirmation enough to say that pyro is a woman. I've been on a many month break from TF2, but I know about the speculation and weird evidence for and against pyro being a woman. I'll be editing the article accordingly. --Maska 16:28, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

It says he too. This is old. -- Smashman... (t • s) 16:38, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
I actually think Pyro is a duck. -- En Ex 16:46, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
Oh, ok. A nice move from Valve. -- Maska 17:38, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
Indeed. Valve trolling us. :3 -- Smashman... (t • s) 17:39, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

guy, says so in the game files globalactors { "demo" "male" "engineer" "male" "heavy" "male" "heavy_hwm" "male" "medic" "male" "pyro" "male" "scout" "male" "sniper" "male" "soldier" "male" "spy" "male" } source: scripts/global_actors.txt. If anything, it's just a little joke calling some men (like the pyro) ladiesSam-1-14 19:56, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

That may just be referring to the fact that the voice actor is male. Truly, I believe there is no definitive answer and Valve will never provide one. Just leave the page ambiguous and let the conspiracy theories fly. It's fun! --Firestorm  User Firestorm Nuke Sig.jpg 20:10, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

Just make him a guy and move on Valve.God! CANPoo 02:43, 21 July 2010 (UTC)CANPoo

My theory is that he's Gromit, from Wallace and Gromit.-CdeMonkey

There should be a section devoted to the pyro's gender confusion.

  • The main menu refers to the Pyro as either "him" or "her", randomly changing each time the game is started.
  • The game files (scripts/global_actors.txt) refers to the pyro as "male"
  • The Pyro's Mildly Disturbing Halloween Mask shows a picture of a small bird, implying that the pyro is a chick
  • The Pyro Beanie seems to imply that the Pyro is a boy (or merely that the Pyro has a childlike intellect)
  • The whiskered gentleman is an obvious nod towards The Pyro being male. The Guadalajara is not exactly a feminine item either.

  • Pyro has a purse in the 2for locker --The preceding unsigned comment was added by Thespy (talk) • (contribs) 01:45, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
The lockers on the top row don't reflect the lockers on the bottom row, so it's hard to say that because the purse is near the Pyro's locker, that it is his. -KazooieBanjo 02:43, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

- The addition of the Madame Dixie hat has created further confusion on the gender of the Pyro, hinting at it being female. I like the idea of a separate page being created about the Pyro's mysterious gender. - Elementhol 15:02, 13 January 2011 (GMT)

I really doubt this minor ambiguity warrants an entire new page. —烏Γ (kaw at me), 21:29, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

When is the truth about the Pyros gender going to be revealed? I hope that the pyro is a female! Altair 22:42, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

I don't think items should really cause that much controversy. I mean GEISHA BOY was a ridiculous item for the medic but he is a man. I think Valve wants to not specify a gender for the pyro so it can be a mystery and so they can release any item for it/she/he Pierow 09:30, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

True, but there where Geisha boys in Feudal Japan, not just the Geisha Girls that everyone knows about today. DJNerd 19:46, 4 July 2011 (PDT)

Since his jumpsuit covers the entire body,it may aswell be just a confirmation of his gender, since he is corpulent, if it was the scout's mom it probably wouldn't appear this way.--Copo 12:31, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

Speculation should go here.  –  Duel RED.png Epic Eric Duel BLU.png (T | C) 19:50, 4 July 2011 (PDT)

I read that apparently TF2 developers wanted to include a female member to TF2? Does anyone know if this was actually said or not and if so when and where (interview or site for example?). Goldfish 14:22, 6 July 2011 (PDT)


the pyro is not a woman he is agro from the epic podkast kritzkast--Iaindude 13:06, 1 April 2012 (PDT)

Pictogram nope.png Nope First off, Kritzkat is speculating. We cannot base information such as this from a podcast. If you wish to discuss this further please take it to the forums. Secondly, you're responding to a topic that ended roughly 9 months ago. User M-NINJA Signature.png 13:17, 1 April 2012 (PDT)



I have cracked it by doing math and biological Male to female ratios. The pyro is in fact a homosexual male told by arm length finger to finger lengths and other scientific methods,Please call me wrong but another man by the name of matt has done this on youtube. For an idea of what i did go to this video

You're assuming both that the modelers put that much thought into the lengths of the characters' fingers, and that you can tell how long your fingers are through a glove probably designed to fit different hand sizes. Anyway, the short of it is that nothing about the Pyro's gender can be added to the Wiki without explicit confirmation, one way or another. If you want to discuss it further, take it to the forums. » Cooper Kid (blether) • (contreebs) 08:39, 14 October 2013 (PDT)
