All somewhat petty but so is 'oh he does not have lips so he can't be pretty, oh he has talons so he can't be pretty, oh his skin is rock coloured he can't be attractive'- half the female bosses have talons or horns or are part animal. There's a selection of near naked women, of fully clothed women, of near naked men, of fully clothed men- in general, they're all attractive because that's generally the style of SE- they make very attractive females and males, with the occassional Vauthry, FFIX's queen, or cuchulainn thrown in. If the addition of talons, feathers, fangs, horns, demonic eyes, etc... makes a male not look male to you, but does nothing to change a female's beauty I think you're creating a scenario in which SE could never win.
Omega, Kefka, Estinian, Gaius, Alphinaud, Thancred- between the highly muscular eikons and many of the other males you have a pretty wide variety of male body types- so you have naked men, well dressed men, you have muscular men, you have pretty men, you have dashing rogues. The majority of the men are good looking in this game, whether they're the classical muscular version of handsome or the more anime style pretty version. Do they meet your standard of beauty? No idea, and SE can't know that either- what they can do is provide variety, which they do.
Now I take from your judgmental snippets at the end of your posts you keep throwing my way that you're not actually looking for a discussion but an excuse to insult me. If that's seriously what you're looking for- a chance to judge what others find attractive, that's kind of sad but by all means go for it.
