Okami - Proof that Amaterasu is female

I've met a lot of people who continue to argue to the death that Amaterasu is male or genderless, so hopefully this'll clear things up a little. Besides, who would know better than her best little buddy Issun?

@Mutaclone if the wolf is genderless, how did she give birth to her son, Chibiterasu?

Proof that Amaterasu is female: Japanese mythology. The end.

@GrilledChicken29 once you read the true legend of Okami? He says that Amaterasu is a female (Lololo lo siento por mi mal ingles)

@111animeluver I never said the character is female, I said the character is MALE.

The gods freed when you complete constellations... they call Amaterasu "mother to us all". To me, that pretty much screams she's a goddess, and not a male god.

@EverlastingGobstoppr Umm, the other dieties refer to her as a goddess. And masculine words can be used to refer to females--just because I don't refer to a dog as a bitch doesn't mean the dog is male.

@EverlastingGobstoppr What is it I'm not seeing that proves that she's male?  You're cussing and using chatspeak--you also sound like a blind.....{error: cannot find non-cussing equivalent to dumbass}

@EverlastingGobstoppr God can refer to any-gendered diety. The Lord of Heaven (God, Yahweh, whatever you want to call him) is genderless, but male when taking on human form, thus making him male (sorta). Almost every female dog I've seen raises her leg to pee. And Ammy could be lesbian, or just going crazy because of Rao's big boobs--even I'd do that, and I'm strait! And Ammy is refered to as Chibi's MOTHER.

@GrilledChicken29 Umm, first off, she's refered to as a she more than once. Second, Amaterasu is a sun GODDESS (female god), so Amaterasu can't be male.

Also, she's refered to as Chibi's MOM.....
