they are far from girly, and if anyone has actually taken the time to research why that is, they would see why they would be super effective against dragons and how badass they can really be.
and for the people who don't think this can be a type, how is dragon a type? ghost? bug? they are based on things and shouldn't "technically" have a type based around them, but no one seems to be bothered by it at all.
honestly, the series isn't just for boys. as soon as something sounds remotely "girly" they all go in a frenzy about how "lame" it is or whatever they want to complain about.
just be happy that they are innovating and trying something new.
like one of the comments above has said, they can do so much with this type.

I said, I hope that the society's views on fairies being girly mythical creatures won't influence Gamefreak to release only girly pokes for that type, it'd be a real shame.
I want to see some badass fairy type, taken from the old days, when Fairy=/=5years girl dreams.
And I looked it up, every name Lafiel gave, all humanoids -_-
I'm still not convinced Fairy==Dragons in myths, but whatever.
I hope to see some diversity in the type when X&Y come out in Octobre, because for now, all Fairy typed pokes announced do look more girly than others. It's not such a bad thing, I'm not against girly pokes, just don't want a full-on girly type.
And for SPG, no. While they're based upon common grounds, the elves are of Nordic origin (Germany, Vikings, stuff like that) while the fairies are of Celtic origins (UK, France...) so they're both from ghostly beings, fantom and such, but from different regions of the Old Wolrd. I don't know if we can link them though, because they are basically from the same thing, just interpreted differently. And yes, that'd shoot down "girly" as a theme. Just like I said, gnomes, trolls, and other mischievous spirits also would shoot down that theme, I just hope Gamefreak realized it too.
And the trailer was in English because it was for E3, wasn't is? So maybe they'll still change some stuff here and there, it did say that the game could still change, not definitive result.
And "Fighting" in japanese could be translated as "Hero", so... yeah, no light possible. Because they're basically the same thing, fighting the forces of "Evil"(=Ghost/Dark, I don't remember)
