I know. Imagine if they had more than one set of race specific gear. The forum would be on complete melt down, and there wouldn't be enough cane shakers to go around.Quote:

06-12-2015, 04:31 AMh0tNstilettosLol, that may be true, but a bulge would still be there even in masculine underwear. Has nothing to do with masculine vs feminine clothing. I'm not saying your opinion is wrong as many people don't want to see bulges, but your opinion should still be the same even in masculine underwear. I'm just saying it has nothing to do with the feminine vs masculine style. There are loose feminine and masculine styles for the lower area, just like there are snugger feminine and masculine clothing for down there.Quote:

The images you posted have nothing to do with feminine or masculine style. The outfit in the image you quoted from my post is a popular feminine style that happens to look good on him as well. I also pointed out that depending on what area of the world you are in, skirts and dresses are worn by males even today. Also, saying that just because something looked good in one time period doesn't mean it looks good now means you completely overlooked most of what was pointed out in the post because I pointed out that it has nothing to do with time period. It has to do with how use you are to seeing something and the mental conditioning from a young age. As for the boys, in a couple of those photos they look like boys and still look just as fine. You're implying that wearing feminine clothing is only okay if you look female. Before pants existed, boys were never switched over to pants at a certain age. It should also be noted that the reason males started wearing different clothes like pants, is not because it looked better on males, but because of a superiority complex and wanting to separate themselves from females status-wise, or for convenience reasons also such as inventing high heels to be able to provide more secure footing on the stirrups of horses and also became a masculine status thing as they made the men even taller. Eventually females started wearing them and the shoes were worn by the upper class (males and females) for status, and eventually men switched away from wearing them. The history of pants vs skirts/dresses, and other articles of clothing varies by area of the world.Quote:

06-12-2015, 04:39 AMSamcaesarI dunno.. I like it, but I think I preferred the cloth wrap. All that gold and nothing else (Except for maybe the dye-able jewel?) looks a little bit weird imo. Either way, nice picture Nozomi!Quote:

And that's exactly the thing that's been increasingly missing lately.
DEAR FORUM PEOPLE, FOR SANITY'S F×××ING SAKE, PLEASE REMOVE THIS GODDAMNED INSANE CHARACTER LIMIT ALREADY BECAUSE IT'S F×××ING DRIVING ME NUTS HAVING TO RUN EXTRA LAPS FOR EACH AND EVERY ONE OF MY POSTS EVERY SINGLE GODDAMNED TIME. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. -
06-12-2015, 05:28 AMTerriniOh you can be sure that there ARE people that would like access to everything restricted from their gender. BUT the issue has come into play when they make "male" sets and "female" sets, and then the "male" sets are unisex but the female sets are restricted. This causes an imbalance because then the "exclusivity" is cheapened.Quote:

I agree Sylvia. ^_^ That's why my first alternate design still had cloth and why I don't generally care for jewelry only tops. I'm actually interested in fashion design on top of being an artist (I'm also in college for goldsmithing/silversmithing but don't take these designs as an example of what I tend to make). Obviously taste/preference is a personal thing but in my opinion this skirt needs the balance of cloth somewhere on the torso or it looks 'off'.

06-12-2015, 06:10 AMAshkendorI think it's more an issue of needing those splashes of color on the top than anything.Quote:
