Gender Locked Clothes

People seem to be opposing this simply because you would not in everyday society see a man wearing a dress or girly clothing. Even barring something like the Spring Dress, would it actually be bad if a man wore a Lady's yukata or vice versa? Would something like the guardian corps top look that bad on a guy? Even the swimwear... I don't get why they're m/f locked when they could just be the same item with the separate graphics for both anyway... I mean the hempen camise is different graphics for different races and people love the Highlander Hyur look, but it's restricted... And seriously that looks rather like what guys get for swimwear anyway... So really... It's sad to see them locked...

Tanks wearing bikinis looks rediculous. Hell, Lalafells tanking looks just as bad, but complaining about that would be just as rediculous as this. It's the devs game, leave the politics out.

I totally support more unisex clothing including geta (lord clogs) that I want.
I know SE have to same resources for other thing but cmon gender locked sandals.... really???

Also I'm still waiting for my Wedding Tux. No Tux, no my money.

Can I ask an honest question? Why would a guy want to have his male character run around in a dress? (or run around in his underpants for that matter). Is it just for childish shock value? Help me out here.

As I explained earlier, some men just like to wear women's clothes, and I know many female players like girly men characters as well. Its just a thing that some people enjoy. Some for shock value, some because they genuinely enjoy it. I can say that personally that I do not enjoy the aesthetic of men in effeminate clothing, but I know some people do and that's okay.

Allow roegaydn to wear lalafell cloths first

There's a few cute and elegant dresses I wish I could put on my character at times, also there are mens clothes like Snow's coat that I know some want on their characters.

Overall, it might be somewhat of a programming hassle to make all past clothes unisex, I just would like to see the ones in the future take such consideration in mind. I don't see a problem with that.

Crescent Moon Pants that we currently have now, which have ribbon on it, can wear by male. PvP top gear for SMN/SCH that looks like princess dress, can wear by male too. So...

Why do men want to wear dresses anyway... freakin wierd

I'm not actually a guy in real life, but I play a male character and I enjoy making him look pretty. I don't necessarily want to have him crossdress all the time, but I'd like the option, because really, compared to the wedding dress the tux is boring. It also makes little sense to gender lock some dresses to male characters, considering how many DoM bodies are functionally dresses; Vanya, Scylla's robe, White Mage Artifact gear is literally a dress with underwear, both the caster and healer i100 and i110 PvP gear look like ballgowns...so what's the point telling male characters they can wear SOME dresses, but not others?

I want to see the biggest, burliest MRoe ever made in the Gold Saucer bunny outfit.
