    I dont think there is a such thing as "GLBT friendly clothing", I would assume the OP is a troll. But androgynous vanity items would be fun. They are pretty common in games, though. I'm sure they will come eventually.

    The picture the OP posted makes me think of some kind of fetish/transvestite attire and IMO has no place in a game like FFXIV lol, the ratings and target audience simply don't match that image.

(That, for your information, is the sociological meaning of the word "average.") You cannot compare the needs of under-represented minorities or majorities with that of over-represented ones. Average Joe claiming for more representation is greedy, whereas the OP wants to feel more human than she/he feels within a set of structures that exclude him or ignore her. That is assuming he/she is not trolling. But even in that case, the theory stands.

    On the other hand, I also remind his/her critics, that there are some within the LGBT community that lack the gender polarization most have, and some of them want to remain within this ambivalent, trans-gendered, non-polar state and identify themselves as transgendered as well.
    Well, isn't it something like 90% of the population have a degree of bi-sexuality. And 40% of people are somewhat "totally" homosexual.

    I think you and I have different meanings for the term "average joe". I'd consider the average joe to be 40% homosexual. lol.

    The "LGBT Community" as we know it - imo - Is something completely different from the average person.

    They should cut out the middle man and let you pick your gender when you start playing,
