Plague Doctor: Male or Female?
I always thought he/she was a guy until I noticed that everyone keeps referring to him/her as a woman. I mean, he/she kind of has the shape of a dude, but the heavy garb and mask make it hard to tell. The guys as Red Hook could also be doing it intentionally. Kind of like the pyro from TF2.

Thoughts?

Sidenote: I've also noticed that all my plague docters have masculine names. Like Bohum. That's definitely not a girl name. That being said, I've also seen hellion named Stanley. I don't think there's any argument over the gender of the hellion.

Docs are women. Names are actually surnames, I think.

It's hard to tell, but if you look close, she's got breasts.

EDIT: I rather enjoy the ambiguity, myself. She's a little creepy-looking, which fits the game's theme perfectly. The beak-mask is an excellent touch.

Plague doctors are absolutely female. I think it's either the blacksmith or the guild that refers to the characters gender. Also I'd argue she doesn't at all have the shape of a man, check again when she's throwing her grenades. As you said it's just hard to tell due to the outfit.

It says in the Bio for the Plague Doctor "Her"

Female. Can you not see her chest?
Have you noticed when making certain party line ups the party itself will get a title?

Plague Doctor is part of a party called "femme fatale" which is obviously an all female party.

I'm sure her legs are close shaved with that Glaive she carrys.

Smooth.

Is a she. Descriptions in the Hamlet tell you so. Don't look at names, they're totally random.

In her afflicted pose you can clearly see that the plague doctor has brests.

Their official FB page posted a image on March 9th 2016, which has many heroes on it, including a plague doctor, and they ask their fans "Who is your favorite female class? What is their story?"

Also the party combo "The Femme Fatales" includes a Vestal, a Plague doctor, a Grave robber and a Hellion. So plague doctors are females with no doubt.
