My argument isn't that a woman can't do it, it's that a woman was a bad choice for Naruto. I particularly enjoy the Simpsons, and was well aware of the fact that they are voiced by women. I was also aware that Naruto is, in Japan, voiced by a woman. In America, however, that voice translation does not seem to work as well, at least in my mind. He sounds too much like a girl, not enough like a pre-pubescent boy (yes, there's a difference). I'm not against the selection to use a woman, I'm against the selection to use that particular woman. She may be great in other things but, IMO, she sucks as Naruto.
