This is interesting, because I met my RL girlfriend through this game. Not only does she jump around a lot, but she also facepulls raid bosses while doing the said action.

*looks at op*

fuck identification, use gender neutral identifiers until your told otherwise.

Run a raid (2nd or Final, Primal, Drunk ST, ect).
Require VChat
Instantly confirms who is who.

That's how my FC discover who I was, anyways.

I think all the basement gamers need to go outside long enough to see how some girls are dressing in real life before determining that only men are going to dress their female characters skimpy. Skimpy styles such as short skirts or whatever are all part of fashion trends that trend towards that 'risque' look and it is popular with some crowds of girls. Who's to say female gamers wouldn't want to do that with their game characters too?

In fact I can think of some examples of why some girls would like to be fashionable and sometimes risque with their characters I mean these game characters are like dolls to us and can also represent ourselves in this digital world ya know? I am personally a fashion freak with my character and make a lot of crafters happy with my glamor and dye purchases lol and my fashion choices range from conservative to mini skirts and what not just depends on my mood :P.

I'm too kind to do something like that. Sure I might not like the whole "ppl playing opposite gender cuz it doesnt feel real to me" thing, but thats just me and I keep it to myself. I also didn't expect this thread to be this viral, I was hoping for it to be one of those small threads that dies after 3-4 posts.

It's ok to be curious. If you simply ask, "Guys, why do you play female toons and vice versa?" that's fine. But when you start inserting your own opinions (whether true or not), it's no longer a question, and can quickly become an argument or offend ppl. That's where you misstepped.

FTR, I play a femme Miqo'te cuz she's named after my RL cat Hexy. My hubby plays a femme Lalla cuz he thinks it's funny to have an adorable little girl tank a huge monster.
