Bunny Ears for Boys Please =:-3

One of the things I like about this game is that there is little unnecessarily skimpy clothing and where it does exist it is generally equal opportunity, looking as skimpy on the male as it does on the female characters (except the random ab window on the Dragoon armor lolwut).

So since we now have the playboy bunny outfit for the girls, I too would love to see an equivalent Chippendale set for the guys. It's literally the same thing - shirt cuffs, bow tie and all.

Also should be males in skimpy clothes at the casino. I mean...come on SE. It's 2015 we don't need to continue to propagate the male gamer stereotype do we?

One of the nice things about Final Fantasy XIV is that it is a game. Unlike real life you can pick whatever gender and race of character you choose.

Therefore its perfectly fine to have outfits limited by race, gender, class, job, etc. You are free to pick any other race, gender, class, job of your choosing to get the benefits you want.

I'm not understanding the problem.

The only issue I see is that there are fewer exclusive outfits for male characters.

Men already have a progressively wide variety of options for (un)dressing like hoes; it's more that females not only get to share several "male" glamours but have more exclusives on top of that.

I have the spriggan hat, the explore calot, onion helms, mog head... I use different hats to go with different classes/outfits. I don't think bunny ears on a man is that ridiculous.

I used to play a female character for glamour reasons until I was asked to change to a male for my ig wife.

I feel like men get screwed on glamour items sometimes and the gear doesn't always look as good on males as it does females... the demon healing gear looks like I'm either a cross dresser or am going for some kind of pimp look.

I somewhat agree.

However I've always been extremely upset that Crafting and Gathering classes have extremely limited tools and outfits compared to War and Magic jobs. One of the things that drew me to FFXIV 1.0 was that crafting and gathering (DoL/H) were distinct classes. I thought that would mean the same amount of attention paid to them in terms of equipment quests and content. Sadly, that is a big opportunity missed by SE.

But still they do it better than any other MMO (IMO) so I can't complain too much XD Anyway that's why this type of gripe drives me a little crazy >.> Forget the bunny ears, think of us poor crafters and gatherers!!!

Shouldnt that apply to what you can wear, rather then your choice of avatar..?

The bow tie is a great idea for a more traditionally masculine, yet risqué look.

On a side note, that boy on the left obviously used the whole bottle of tanner on his body and had none left for his face lol.

Bow Tie + Bunny Head
please please please please please please please please

Pft, unless the female clothes are made specifically for the female model and would take a lot of adjusting/changes to make it wearable by the male model... Make all female clothes wearable by males or... YOU SEXIST MOFOS! IF A MALE WANTS TO WEAR "FEMALE" CLOTHES, THE MALE SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO SO!

Lol, it's funny that there are some in this thread that tie gender to clothing, and some even tying it to sexuality. The brainwashing of society is unbelievable.

Clothing has no gender and does not determine whether you are attracted to males, females, or both. Gender and sexuality is biological. Clothing is man-made. No one is born wearing clothes. There is no such thing as male and female clothes. That is a societal construct. And for the record, many articles of clothing have been worn by one sex before another and back and forth through time. High heels were invented as a shoe for men. Men use to wear dresses and still do in some places. Pink use to be a masculine color and blue a feminine color. In the end none of it matters except to those with low brain capacity. Also, in reference to the animal, there are male and female rabbits. Rabbit ears are not feminine or masculine, and even if they were, it has nothing to do with one's sexuality. There are lots of straight men that prefer feminine clothing, and they often get offended when someone assumes they're gay. As long as the clothing fits and does not fit weird, then there's not an issue.

Some guy: "That guy is wearing bunny ears. That means he's attracted to men."

The lack of intelligence in some humans is unreal. I'm female by the way, and I know plenty of straight guys that will tell you the same.

This is exactly right.

I mean I usually just play the game and not think much about these things, but honestly, if they are gonna put fan service in the game they really should do it equally for both genders.

There are a lot of players who like nice women, and there are a lot of players who like nice men. So how come the Golden Saucer's personnel only have sexily dressed females? There really should be male personnel who are sexily dressed waiting tables or hosting events too, and they should add that set to the MGP prizes whatever kind of set it might be, whether they let males have a bunny set or add a new sexy set for men.

TL;DR - Gamers are not all straight men.

On my server at least, there seems to be slightly more female characters than male characters, so it is especially funny that all of the scantily clad "fan service" employees are female. And by funny, I mean vexing. Yes, I know, many of those female characters are played by males, but looking at the Gold Saucer you'd think there was no such thing as a straight female (or a gay male) in Eorzea. Or playing the game, for that matter. >.<

More on-topic, I fully support bunny ears/outfits for the guys! I find it rather amusing to see Miqo'te wearing the bunny outfit, it is so cute and silly with their cat parts. And lalas in bunny ears are just about the most adorable thing ever. Why must it be female only? :(

But it's a Manderville club, therefore a club for gentlemen. Why would they want men dressed like that?

Because Godbert's wife. Her husband walks around in his skivies all day. She clearly has no opposition to male eye candy. If she wanted him to be dressed, he'd be dressed. There's even a golden statue of him in said undies in one of the lounges.

A bunny suit for male characters would be awesome :). Can't wait to see it on male Au Ra!

I would like to have ears and a suit for my male character. If the screenshots threads show us something, it is that players love to dress their male characters in skimpy outfits, so there is a demand for a bunny oufit.

Godbert the MAN above all MEN is running around in his underwear, so I doubt Eorzea has any issues with bunny males.

To those who think bunny ears alone will suddenly make male characters effeminate in any way. Comical, yes (darn it Nintendo), but certainly not effeminate.

No. No we will no stop~ XD

I want boys running around in panties now.

You could have easily held your argument without insulting others. Using past societal norms in contrast to today's is a fallacy in itself. Besides, you cannot honestly 100% truthfully tell me that a man running around in a bunny outfit in Eorzea is masculine.

You also aren't built with the sole impression of being a sex symbol like the bunny suits. "Your argument is invalid"

This is going south quickly.

...I'm the male version of a race that was designed to be sexy and appealing... Also I created my catboy, hell I joined, because the promo artwork I saw back before 2.0 launched of the catboys made me go "SEXY! MUST BUY GAME!"

I think the bunny ears alone would be great for males and a totally different bunny "suit", not the female version though of the suit...nope...notta...{no thanks}

A pair of floppy ears for both sexes would be adorable though

Oh Yea!! bunnyears@formales.com After the guys get the cute bunny ears can we females have a Cloud Strife outfit not messed with or changed. If Lighting can wear the standard Cloud outfitt why cant we?

Ps: Sorry, getting off topic.... that's not a real site

Ummm the female cloud strife outfit looks exactly the same as the male variant, I'm confused what's your arguement?

http://puu.sh/fjiWB/0c73169718.jpg

I can totally see Rou Rou using it... XD

Fuma,its differant if you look very closly. The gloves ar differant. The neck line is lower for females and I bet it will make all females have the same chest size. Not a big issue but...... I won't cry promise

ps: it might be the BAD photos but they look differant to ME. I might be wrong but you'll get Bunny ears out of the deal. WIN/WIN??

The neckline's are the same (look at the "plunging" neckline of the male roe in the back... ) and the gloves are the same as well, it's just that the left glove is shorter than the right glove which goes up to the elbow but nonetheless still no difference between the genders...

Ok Fuma, I'll have to take your word for this untill I see it with my OWN non - bad photos eyes. No bunny ears for guy then.....lol

The guys could get the Chippendale type suits then. Tight black leather pants, the collars at the wrist, the bowtie at the neck, and the bunny ears. That way the guys still get a fun sexy outfit, and they can be eye candy for the ladies to boot. *drool* Chippendale reviews are part of casino culture, too!

You really need to learn what gay actully is.

Also, y'know, doesn't really matter if it were gay or not.

You are right, but it does matter when one person has to make a thread about it. Seriously a waste of the developers time all for the sake of 'equal rights'.

GO MAKE A FEMALE IF IT BOTHERS U

Oh god, here we go...


Yes, lets allow it for the sake of "fairness" so 4 out of however many hundred thousand active players can equip it once on a guy and then never again.

While we're at it, lets allow guys to wear bras as well. Because "fairness" and stuff

The only reason I can guess as to why both genders can't access the set is that, SE having limited resources chose to prioritise their larger player-base, which would be females (I'm assuming).

One can only hope that it will be added in later ^^

When you go to a casino irl you will not see men in bunny ears serving drinks. You will see women in bunny ears serving drinks. The Gold Saucer reflects life, it's pretty obvious to anyone who has been to Las Vegas; it's not to propogate the male gamer stereotype, as someone who clearly has never left their bedroom said earlier.

I do think it's a little silly that female characters get to wear best men suits, but I would think it equally silly to see male characters prancing around in bunny ears. I'm not opposed to SE keeping this gender specific. So please dev's, no bunny ears for boys.

The backstory of my male alt Rysta has him spending most of his life "serving" various aristocrats in Ul'dah. I'd love it if he had a wider selection of gear, including bunny ears and that whatchamacallit... Chip'n'Dale? That'd be great on him ^_^

I'm Aussie by the way and I don't go to clubs so not familiar with that "outfit" until now, interesting take on the concept though!
