    Have you ever heard of Amy's Baking Company? This kind of logic is why they're out of business. "It's our creation, if you don't like it GTFO." Well, that's exactly what happened to that business. When companies don't listen to the concerns of customers, they go elsewhere. While I agree the OP going on a tangent over the color of a feather is beyond stupid, it still stands that there is gender locked gear and people take issue with it.

    And what do you do for the said customers who prefer the benefits of having individual race/sex gear? You can't please both groups in this situation unless you go for a medium, in which case the issue still stands that people will complain they don't get to wear specific gear.

    Which is a very good counterpoint. Honestly, I would be happy to see both men and women having an equal amount of gender locked gear. The women get a spring dress, the men should have an equivalent. We have this with things like the Coeurl Beach gear. I find it to be a good practice.

    This - I find sex/race/job restrictions to add flavor. But everyone should have the same AMOUNT of options.

    Oh you mean http://amysbakingco.com/ She was put out of business because her husband got sick of funding the crazy and left her. Let me make it clear, you're not on the same level with the development team and don't get to make decisions for them as to what they put into their game - Make a suggestion then leave it alone, not beat the damn thing to death till they give in.

    EDIT: Like I said: Thinly veiled activism - Should be a bannable issue after a while because of the threats companies like this have to endure from people not getting what they want in a GAME =\
