"Hey ryttu3k, what's up?"

Physics is up! Let's have a look at quantum superposition. In a thought experiment called 'Schrodinger's cat', a cat is sealed inside a box along with a radioactive source, a geiger counter, and a flask of poison. Radioactive sources, by their very nature, decay - that's what makes them radioactive. However, it's impossible to say which atom will decay or not, or even whether it will decay or not.

In this experiment, if the radioactive element decays, and there's a 50% chance that it will, then the geiger counter will go off and the poison will be released, killing the poor cat However, if it doesn't, then the cat stays alive.

The box is sealed, and there's an equal chance that the element did or did not decay. Until the box is opened, we have absolutely no way of knowing of the cat's state - therefore, the cat is simultaneously alive and dead.

"Oh...kay. I just wanted to look at fanart. What does physics have to do with Link/Sheik?"

Because Sheik's gender is the cat.

"...What."

No, seriously. In this image, Sheik is deliberately drawn androgynously, with features of both. Long hair, curves, no adam's apple. Muscles, a flat chest, a strong jawline. Therefore, Sheik is simultaneously male and female.

"You just made that up!"

Obviously. I drew it.

"...Just tell us whether Sheik is male or female here."

No can do! Not even I know - I deliberately set out to draw zir as androgynous. I never picked a gender. Zie is both at the same time.

Do you want to view Sheik as an androgynous, girly young man? Go forth and do so! Do you want to view Sheik as an androgynous, boyish young woman? Go forth and do so! Sheik is simultaneously male and female, this is simultaneously yaoi and het, it could be posted to a yaoi group or to a het group. Sheik's gender is the cat, Sheik's pants are the box, and Link is the only one who knows.

"Was this whole torturous physics analogy actually necessary?"

...Probably not. HI GUYS HAVE LINK/ANDROGYNOUS!SHEIK.

Better?

"Much."
