i love cute and small thing so...lala is my best answer :D
First: they're small and cute, I like the aesthetic for my caster/healer Jobs, and it looks comical when I have to tank. Second: I find it's a good ice breaker when meeting new/shy people. I can run up, emote some and just start chatting with them. I couldn't do that when I tried miqote or elezen lol. Well, I could do it, but it wasn't received as openly. People just aren't intimidated when faced with a lala, makes it easier to make friends tbh. Also I don't get creepy pervs bothering me all the time the way they bothered my catlady.
Edit: Also there's an odd sort of camaraderie amongst other lalas. I dunno how to explain it, it's just something that's there then you meet and hang out in game. I feel more lonely when it's not there lol.
I'm not sure of this either. People would argue about gnomes being too small to tank in WoW and others would bring up your point.
It all comes done to an optical illusion regarding the size of the gnome versus a big creature. Things look more intimidating when you're tiny but logically that extra 3 foot in height would not affect the combat at all.
Anywho... Yasuhiro was just expressing her thoughts regarding lalafell. Let's not get bogged down because that viewpoint differs from your own. You both like being a lalafell. That's the important thing here.
Because you can do this

The lala walk animation is amazing. Especially if you walk while sprint is active.
Damn, this thread is making me want to go back to lala (again). XD I tend to fantasia every so often, and I've been a lala twice now. I loved it. They're adorable and cute and people do respond differently to you, giving you random /pats and such.
Sometimes I think I should go lala permanently but I always end up missing my beautiful duskwight. ^^
Wow! All of the answers are so deep, and you make me a proud lalafell.
Question: Are we the only race that gets excited when there are 4 of us in a light party?
I love it when I queue up for a dungeon roulette, and am surrounded by 3 other lalas. I'm not sure if any other race gets that excited. It's like we have an unspoken understanding or something. :)
The reason I play lalafell is because I love playing a small character that is powerful. I originally wanted to play a caster and all robes look amazing on them. Even though these days I play tank for my raid group a tiny tank is adorable too. We also look the BEST in the moogle attire.
