You made a poll...wasn't there already a discussion of this going on somewhere? Anyways I'd say drag queen because in the manga I always thought yasha was a girl and in the anime it seemed like a man.
naturally i made a poll it had to be done im intoxicated what do you expect.Originally posted by: KonohamaruCorps

Yeah beer and Internet!
I voted for woman; I still believe that. Someone mentioned in the other discussion that women's names commonly use -ko while men's use -maru. But I got curious so I looked up the 'Yasha' in her name, using the kanji in the manga.
Turns out it means 'female demon'.
I'm not alone in thinking she's a woman, though; I was talking to my host-sister (she and her kids read and watch Naruto, too) about this, and she called Yashamaru Gaara's mother's 'imouto', or younger sister...so if the Nihon-jin are saying it's so, I'm inclined to believe the same.
Even though she speaks in polite form, it would be expected that she would call herself 'boku' if she was a boy, but she calls herself 'watashi' instead. She hasn't gone to the level of keigo (uber-polite speech), but actually speaks a little more casually than Rock Lee, who does call himself 'boku', so it's not a characteristic of politeness to refer to herself as 'watashi'.
Besides, that level of motherly devotion in a guy is a little...creepy....
[edit]'u' is not the same as 'e' in English [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img] Looked it up right in Japanese, tho[/edit]
but his name is yahsamaru not yashumaru and he is a guy. i also believed that he was a woman at first but look carefully in the manga and anime he dont got any breasts! what kind of woman got no breasts?
Oops; my apologies, I wrote down the English reading wrong. Post edited [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] For whatever reason I still looked up the correct kanji/readings in Japanese, though, so my point is still the same.Originally posted by: Pervert-Sennin Jiraiya

As for the boobage...I dunno. There aren't that many money shots of Gaara's...let's call her his caretaker...chest, so it's hard to judge. Besides, Kishimoto doesn't draw big-chested women save for Anko and Tsunade, so you can't go by that. Who was the girl who found the sick examiner's body; wasn't she pretty flat? Toss in the fact she's wearing either thick robes or ninja uniforms and you get even more muffled. And c'mon, Yashamaru's too pretty to be a guy; she's got the long hair and the whole eyelash thing going on, and Kishimoto just doesn't draw bishounen you can't be sure of. Orochimaru is the closest, but it didn't take long to figure out he was a guy.
i simply cant imagine a female having the voice that yashamaru has though.......

Not all women have big breasts, and as for her voice, there are a lot of women with manly voices. Just watch Hookers at the Point on HBO or somethin, you'll find plenty of manly women.
yea but yashamaru doesnt got any in the scene where he cuts himself in the finger. if i remember correctly you can see down his shirt/coat thingy in that part, i might be wrong tho.Originally posted by: KonohamaruCorps

I wasn't really looking when I saw the ep, and I deleted it now, but I'm sure you're rightOriginally posted by: Pervert-Sennin Jiraiya

Gaaah.... through all of the ep. where Yashamaru was in (75, 76, w/e), I kept on thinking 'How the heck can this be a man....??' Later, when he 'tried' to kill Gaara, I kinda saw his rather manly body. But still, in the manga, I swore he was a woman. Geez. It confused me so badly..
He was always a guy, but I think it's a typical male thing to assume he is female since he did some... well... girly things in the manga, and said emotional stuff.
I guess that might be why, but he also looked so much like a girl, I thought it was just the twin sister of Gaara's mom.

I thought that Yashamaru was the paternal twin of Gaara's mother.
Paternal twins are very similar in looks but of different genders.
Yashamaru is Gaara's uncle.
