    I'd like to start this post by saying I am not being aggressive at all.

    Male and Female fashion is not equal. Even then opinions vary, eg. I do not think the outfit on the very first post is feminine at all.

    The game also has a particular aesthetic that they want to maintain and I am very happy for them to keep doing that. There is of course a matter of opinion about what should or should not be gender/job locked, and this is something that developers will not be able to please everyone with; if they want to maintain their aesthetic.

    On a more personal note, I am glad that Men can not wear some exceptionally feminine items (Hildibrand made it funny, Player Characters would make it cringey and frankly unsightly, please do not assume I feel this way IRL, because this is Eorzea we are talking about here).

    I am also glad that male characters get access to some nice glamours like Ulfhade's Dancing Gif above, and that they are working on the Golden Saucer/Bunny set for males.

    So, everyone has an ideal and where they draw the line is going to vary a lot. Because of this, I think they should just keep doing what they are doing, not because I am given access to more clothing (which is in my control because I choose to play a female) but because it is my aesthetic ideal that the Men in game look a certain way, or more accurately; don't look a certain way.
