I don't think it's gay at all. I find the series to be refreshingly gender-neutral in its presentation, and I think the "girly" (or maybe even "gay") reputation it's earned over the years has been more than a little unfair. Home decoration has been a part of every Animal Crossing game, and having the option of customizing your appearance more with clothing is, I think, very refreshing to the gameplay (well, for as much as these games really have, anyway). I'd hate to be playing what's really the fifth generation of the game and still have my clothing limited to a shirt and some pre-rendered shorts and sneakers.
