Miqo'te coupling and romance

Its very possible, but this is could be mostly seen on adventurers that are seekers or kepeers. Those are the ones that could be not be strincly with their traditions and try new things.

They do both seem drawn to that hyur. I can only speculate what he might be hiding beneath that robe...

Of course it has no effect on miqo'te, as it states in the description. So everyone should continue to sell it on the market board at very low prices.

I think it was in one of the lore posts from a while ago (may have even been in-game), but the "five races" is still used because Au Ra are really new to Eorzea. Scholars just haven't bothered to start saying "six races" yet (if you really think about it, there's almost no Au Ra in the Shroud, Thanalan or La Noscea, and only a few in Coerthas/Dravania. Even though we know they are common in the East, the term is Eorzea, so five is going to stick for a while)

There's also got to be useful social roles for the Tias to fill because they lead settled lives with the rest of the tribe instead of wandering around like Keeper males do.

That Miqo from the WP questline is a Keeper, not a Seeker.

Apologies, that was meant entirely as humor, considering the gaelicatnip reference as a whole was obviously a joke. =P I figured the answer was either that or a translation error.

More on topic, I recall at least one of the huntresses at Forgotten Springs pretty clearly referring to her interest in another huntress, so same sex pairings for romance certainly seems like an option, though I would imagine it being less pronounced in males if only because, for those who have any ambition of becoming Nunh, there would be a natural hostility. Actually, one of the themes I'm finding interesting to explore in a story I've been writing based on one of my alts is how Miqo'te who were raised in traditional Seeker society but broke away from it deal with romantic relationships, considering that cultural context doesn't just... disappear so easily.
