    players with male characters would complain again not to have both outfits because SE doesn't seem to be willing to give all the outfits to everyone. ( Although we got the spring skirt )

    I'm pretty sure nobody would complain more about getting both choices than about being limited to one. That male characters should have as many skimpy sexy outfits as female characters do is just as important as that female characters should have as many nice outfits as males do. Leaving either one mis-matched between the genders leaves the sexism in place.

    If SE only wants to create one new outfit for each gender, then they should both have similar outfits. If they want to create two highly different types of outfits, then both genders need one of each type. That could be either a matter of offering the same outfits to both genders or different but equivalent ones. The current offer, on the other hand, is not in the least bit equivalent.
