Well, while I disagree that Irvine is gay, I will say he's a poser ("life of a sniper," what utter garbage, then he breaks down at the critical moment).

And speaking of things "gay," I seem to recall that the FF series has done well to keep away from such risky footing EXCEPT in the rather (heh) questionable Don Corneo sequence. But by all means, correct me if I'm wrong.
