Birdo is a Boy!

Ok. We all have to face the fact. BIRDO IS A BOY! It clearly states that here in the Super Mario Bros. 2 instruction manual.

The Super Mario Bros. 2 description of Birdo.

That however is not what pisses me off. There are a few things that piss me off about this. Firstly, everyone can stop calling Birdo a guy and saying that him and Yoshi are married. THEY'RE NOT! Secondly, even though Nintendo clearly stated themselves that Birdo was male, they still pair Birdo and Yoshi together as a romantic couple. I don't blame people for thinking he's a girl. Like come on. He's pink. And has a bow in his hair. This one of Nintendo's really pisses me off. Not only that, but Nintendo later refers to her in Super Mario Tennis as a girl. All of this along with pictures of him/her (I don't even know which at this point) flirting with Yoshi. I'm a little confused. Is this the first transexual Nintendo character? Referred to as a he and a she, flirts with other male dinosaurs, and is widely accepted into the Mario "posse". And after all of this Birdo is still going strong today in games such as Mario Kart Wii. This is one cool dinosaur, chicken thing.
