Especially as that artwork is just a fan-made piece and is not an official rendition of how Minwu was suppossed to look. The official Square art (by Yoshitaka Amano and others)... makes him more androgynous:

I admit, when I first saw that piece of art I took Minwu for a girl based on... that feminine looking chest plate. :p But I digress...

Well I usually want to make my SCH outfit have some muscular look but I ended up make his looks FABULOUS (With wiggle duck tail)

And this is my old 50 healer outfit

I didn't think there was any reason to assume the FF1 White Mage was a female. When I played the game way back when on the NES, I though it was a guy. I didn't play any of the various remakes of it though, so perhaps that was just a function of the amazing NES graphics. ;)

Well the original original whm was male.
It was like a reverse Samus move!

They really need to start making more short/ half robes. Why design such ornate leg,arms,feet pieces when it's just going to be covered by a robe? Seems like a waste to me.

I had such high hopes that with the introduction of arachne, coil, bogatyr healer/caster sets was an indicator that there'll be more gear with similar designs for expansion. Too bad most gear is pretty much long robes

It was actually a samus, but everyone already suspected the whm being female. Also confirmed by what i posted 2 pages ago

The 'feminine' design of white mage gear

The design of the gear for white mages was not intended to have a 'feminine' look, specifically — rather, it was based on Final Fantasy I's iconic white mage, who happened to be a female character.

White Mage was female, but wasn't the Cleric upgrade male?

Not that it really mattered because they were 8-bit sprites and nameless because you were supposed to name your party what you wanted (like a good RPG) - so technically all the characters were both male and female at the same time, until the player assigned them a name and a gender. Schrodinger's Gender.

try the company tabard. There are plenty of boots out there

I chose to glam it to swimwear from that moonfire faerie event. Now I feel sexy and fabulous, lol.
