Another problem arise when we think how much of the people in this topic represent what the general playerbase actually like. A lot of player do not participate in the forum's activities nor even visit it. And that without mentioning the Japanase playerbase who may have different point of view. So I can be wrong about being any significant number of the female playerbase enjoying the sexy clothing in FF XIV or perhaps is the opposite and only a small fraction actually wants regular clothes.
We would need polls, surveys and the like, but making the majority of the playerbase actually participate sounds very complicated. And nothing asure SE would take it in account.
