White mage

I just can't

The animations are way too feminine.

I'm having a hard time thinking of a particularly feminine white mage animation. Unless maybe you're getting a girly vibe from the levitate-and-spin wind-up on Holy and Aero III, but that always struck me as more of a gender-neutral badass mystic pose than anything.

I think some of the poses could certainly be seen as feminine, not that I mind . I took a few pictures so everyone can judge. I didn't spend too much time on them since these are just for reference, so I apologize that they're a bit dark.

The first few are Tetragrammaton, Holy, and Saint Shroud. I recommend watching these animations in detail if you can, because they're all quite graceful. I wouldn't consider them feminine, though, as these would not appear out of place in a men's figure skating competition.

Now these four bend a bit more on the feminine side. The first two are a casting of the stone spell. Notice how the toes angle inwards. The feet are spread apart, but not the legs, which refuse to part much beyond the knees. This could be considered feminine because a "lady" is expected not to spread her legs, or it could just be a consequence of white mages--male or female--wearing a skirt, dress or robe.

These last two are Asylum and Assize. To be fair to Asylum, it involves a bit of floating, and manly floating is hard to pull off. And Assize, well... the left hand just screams, "I... feel... Fabulous!!!" But after damaging, healing, and restoring mp all at the same time, who wouldn't feel a little fabulous?

I don't think it's the pose that makes this feminine-looking..
