Women and Armor!

I don't have a choice in the matter. I don't want to look like that when I'm sitting around crafting.

Now I kinda want to glamour something completely different

What is it now, do you have no choice or is there a glamour system that allows you to wear something you like better?

Right, cause I'm totally gonna glamour every set that I spiritbond or wear to level up. >.>

Those two quotes were also about completely different things. Patrician's set and DRG artifact gear. You must have missed the part where the DRG gear is something that I've glamoured to and I'm thinking of changing. >.>

If it's a transitional/disposable/convertable/desynthable piece then why are you worrying about how it looks? For me, I only sweat the endgame gear. My ninja right now is in a mismatched hobo-suit. Once it hits 50, then I'll worry about it.

Which one do you find less stupid?

Neither, those pictures are equally awesome.

I spiritbond one Patrician's set and put on... guess what? Another Patrician's set to spiritbond. :P

Seriously, why does it matter? There's no reason it should look so different for both genders. The best man's suit doesn't suddenly turn into a bustier and a miniskirt when you put it on a female character. o.O

Yes, but you're only using those as a disposable piece for the purposes of spiritbonding, converting, repeating. This isn't an end tier crafting set.

As for your second point, I'd like them to add more options in as well but I'm not going to take them making certain sets, and it is only certain sets - not everything, look differently between genders as being some sign that SE is somehow objectifying women.

I never said that it was. I simply said that I dislike how the look changes between male and female and wish that I had a choice in the matter. The DRG artifact gear is actually a good example of this. Aside from the 'stab me here' belly window for females it's a very nice looking set. I loved how it looked on the male avatar, but I'm not so keen on it on the female. I like that armor in particular because of the look and the feel of it - a fairly heavily armored lance wielder. The belly window doesn't really fit with that, hence why I'm considering changing it.
