    Because not all female characters are played by females; trying to denote between "female characters" and "female players" before someone gets all crazy up in here and starts turning this into a feminism thing (which would actually be pretty hilarious because I'm a girl playing a male character, lol). I guess it makes it more confusing than anything. Meh.

    So.... the point of your thread was to come here and stir up the trolls from their caves and bridges, then?

    I'm a little lost now. I'm going to go back under my bridge and get some coffee.

    Oh I see, so which did you mean by "girls"? As in female characters? On a side note, I am a male and play a female character =P

    Again, I am all for equality - if people want something, I see no reason why SE shouldn't implement it. I can just see from a dev resource standpoint that they need to pick and choose and cut things accordingly. It is quite possible that certain glamours are made gender locked, as they did not foresee many people of the other gender wanting that option. Therefore the dev time commitment was not worth it. It's also possible that i am very wrong on this and that the dev team is full of bigots

    Yeah, anytime I'm discussing glamours and I refer to "females" it's basically shorthand for "people that play female characters" because the second one is clunky as hell. Given the track record, I'm just waiting for someone to go all tumblr on my ass. xD

    Eh, I don't think it's a matter of bigotry. It just seems like overall female characters just receive more attention as far as the dress up/glamour portion of the game goes. Maybe there's a reason for it; I'm not really sure, to be honest. It's almost like they create two outfits, one for male and one for female, then look at the male option and go: omg but this would be so cute on girls too. x3

    I think they should make females pay $15 instead of $8 if they want the Cid glamour. Sound fair?

    lol fair enough. On another side note, my sister once asked me if I wished I was a woman - based on that I always play female characters in games. :\ I don't think that is the reason? I'd like to say it is sex appeal, but I even play Peach in Super Smash Brothers.

    Perhaps. It's hard to say what goes on in the devs heads. I have often wondered (usually on different topics *cough*diadem*cough*)

    I used to always play female characters; then I played a game with genderlocked classes and now I lean more toward male. *shrug*

    I dunno why either! People are weird. :3

    Okay right now im Lala, but im always a kitteh so now you have, again!

    On topic, who are you to say that males can't wear dresses, and have a bunny suit?! I am sorry but who gives a crap what they wear, is it locked in real life since you have brought it up? No, then why should it be in a game? Just don't look at them if it bothers you.

    While all of the female Miqo'te I happen to be friends with happen to be played by real guys, I have met a fair number of real-life females who play Miqo'te ladies too and feel sorry for them when they get teased for being guys when... they're probably not. I play whichever gender I feel like each time I start a new game, but inevitably become attached to my character and never change the way they look beyond a haircut now and again. After a decade being a girl in FFXI I fancied a chance for XIV. It was surprising to find it harmed my fashion prospects as time went by.
