Gender Discrimination Needs to Stop

[Lexia]

really? *walks away*

So, male Elezen should be able to wear it and female Lalas shouldn't? =-x

Elezen men don't really have the curvature, but they do have the body of fashion model, where length and lithe help portray the look of the clothing itself more than anything.
Lalafell are made to look cute no matter what you put them in.

So...maybe they would pull it off a little better? In a weird way? But that's more of an apples/oranges deal.
In any case, you should ultimately wear what you are most comfortable in.

Gender-bias in Eorzea needs to change.

No, you need to leave your political agenda back on earth before traveling into eorzea and request that developers add things to their games rather than demand them.

Remember to take some more water bottles in your underground bunk for when the gays will take over the world.

Working as intended. Please look forward to it.

I definitely believe men should be allowed to wear female clothing, just like how we can wear 'male' clothing like pants and such. Both in-game and real life.

We're the ones that came up with the idea that women can wear skirts and guys can't. It's not some divine law or w/e. I find it to be a silly thing that's only in our heads.

Throwing my two cents in even if this is thread is probably just a big troll.]
People in this thread act as if male characters weren't already able to wear 'dresses', what would one more 'official' change? As a female playing a male, I've come to enjoy to dress him in gear that most people wouldn't dare to use, why? Because I think it looks great and I'm having fun seeing some people reaction. As people have said this is a game. My tank wears a golden thong, and my WHM used to have that Flames mage's skirt. And no one ever gaf.
I don't expect SE to ever change their mind about it, but despite all that I honestly find it unfair that the feminine gent in this game are able to have more great glamour than male. I am able to craft those gear myself and was honestly pissed off that all I could do was to sell them. I don't care if it's a dress or not, give us a more 'proper' male version if you want.
PS; If SE doesn't want to give me a wedding dress, idc, I already have one.

Don't forget about Manfilia at the Fan festival cosplay contest.

Thanks for returning that to my mind. Gonna get some brain bleach now.

While we're on the topic, we should also implement hormones that you can use the look closer to the other gender without actually being such. I want my woman beard!

I'm a MtF transgender in a technically lesbian relationship and I absolutely agree with Delorean. You do not need to shove your personal views into every single video game you come across. If it's so offensive that a man can't wear a dress, move on to another game. Or make your own game. Delorean said nothing that was homophobic in any way, but you're painting them as such, and that is just plain stupid. Not everyone that disagrees with you is a bigot. Some of us are just rational people that don't see the need to force issues like this into every aspect of our lives, real or virtual.
Play the damn game instead of trying to make it another hugbox where only your personal views exist.

I agree. I remember a thread about wearing pink to support cancer survivors and people was told "there is no cancer in eorzea" and they said to keep it out of the game. Same goes for this.. if you gay please quit flaunting it in our face. You got what you want please let it be left at that. I am not trying to be rude about this subject but come on guys enough is enough. Look at FFXI I am sure there is same sex couples but they don't say here look at us.. they made rings for each other and moved on. Why can't you?
