Aren't we all emotions of Isaac though?!

We definitely are! That's it, fellas, no more discussion needed here.

What ever has the most votes is what Azazel is

This, if you're not looking at it from the "everyone is Isaac" angle.
You kill issac in the cathedral, but on the third phase before he dies he turns into an angel.
ISSAC = FALLEN ANGEL CONFERMEDS

As has been mentioned, in the Bible, Azazel is referred to as being masculine, although demons aren't technically male or female. It's the same as how God is referred to as masculine, with the title "God the Father". God is supposed to actually be neither male nor female but is typically presented in a masculine way. So looking at it from that angle, Azazel is neither male nor female, but is masculine, if that makes sense. Although why anyone cares so much about Azazel's gender, I'm not sure.

Azazel and Eden could be taken as a boy, girl, both, or none.

You may think Maggie is a girl, but in one of Isaac's terrible life dreams, he gets a gift that is a wig to look like his sister. Maggie (Character) is Isaac wearing a wig pretending to be his sister. Wearing the wig makes him feel better so, +1 Heart, since his sister is dead. The other characters represent Isaac's emotions.

The only character I think is a girl is Eve.

Might be correct in regards of Isaac only but as Maggy is a sure reference to Mary Magdalene she has to be seen as female. Same Reason as with Azazel being genderless.

Again, youse both are not getting it. ALL playable characters are personas derived from Isaac's psyche. Regardless of Isaac's gender, all these personas's genders can differ from Isaac's.
Maggy and Eve are both girls. Yes, they are still Isaac, but at the same time they aren'.
No need to discuss Cain, Judas or Samsom.
Eden was specifically said to be non-binary (nor a girl or a boy) by Edmund.
So yes, Azazel is the only difficult one to define, really.
Yeah, but in their Terrible Life Dreams between floors, they all have ♥♥♥♥♥. Riddle me that laddy.

sex is between your legs, gender is between your ears

and just saying...look up the wikipedia page for "azazel"
in every example given there, quotes straight out of the bible where azazel is mentioned, it always refers to azazel as a "he"...so i dunno why so many think azazel is a female.

yeah, ppl say it's casue of his hair but I always thought he was a guy

Because this is the internet. Everything must get gender bent.

aazel's hair doesn't look like girl hair, I think it looks like Nathan Explosion from Dethklok's hair, who seems to be modeled after George "Corpsegrinder" Fisher of Cannibal Corpse, but their hair is longer than Azazel's.
i suspect the design was kind of going for a heavy metal look but it's kind of tricky in pixel art.
long hair does not automatically = girl
azazel's hair isn't even long...
