    For the opposite reason: They would catch more heat for keeping the outfits locked to men than they would for making them wearable by both genders.
    So.... They would catch more heat for giving women one outfit and men one outfit (as long as they are comparable, not like in the case of zetzer vs bunny).... than they would for giving women two outfits and men one outfit? Let's apply the same equality to other things. Female characters get two loot drops per week from Alexander, men get one. Or vice versa: Men get two rolls and women get one. I'm sure that would go over well =D

    It's not equality to remove the distinction. It's equality to celebrate both as distinct, and equal.
    If you wanna cross the line, go ahead, but don't force others to conform to your view; calling them sexist, if they don't.
    ....Yes. Right. Equal. That's what this thread is about, actually. Male characters being given the same amount of options for glamour as female characters. And if female characters get to wear the male counterpart to this outfit, why would it then be fair to lock the female counterpart to female only?

    Of course, most boys are going to choose male-labeled clothing and male-labeled toys and games. Because just like girls get told they're not real girls unless they like pink dresses and makeup (sometimes outright, sometimes merely through looks and genderdirected advertisements), boys get told they're not real boys if they like to play house or cook or wear skirts. Or, gods forbid, like pink.
    Does that mean it's right to keep believing toys or clothes only belong to one gender? (Or, in the case of boys' clothes, belong to both genders...) Or should it rather be an individual choice, no more right than wrong? =D

    But that's not what this thread's about ^^
