How are lalas pervy?

Because they're "lolita" I guess?

Lalafells aren't at all sexualized, though.

To point out an example of a "lolita" race, go look at the "Elin" from Tera (or better yet, don't). They're the definition of "pedobait".

Ehhh, less sexualized and more presented as adults. This recent moonfire faire for example requires you to spy on beach goers and one of them is very much a scantily clad lalafell. Likewise if you go up to Costa Del Sol you'll find two Lalafell harassing a Miqo'te, with one talking about his ability to please women. Lalafell are perhaps the one race with the biggest disconnect between their outward presentation and how they're likewise presented within the world itself. Their outward presentation is cutesy and very, very child like. However in lore they're presented entirely in a different matter, with some of the most disturbing character arcs coming from members of their race. (Lolorito, for example.)

I mean, yeah, the running gag of perverted male lalafells continues throughout the entire game, really.

But I guess I never thought of them as children but more just smallfolk, and there's not much difference between a shirtless male lalafell and Verne Troyer (aka Mini-Me from Austin Powers: http://stupidcelebrities.net/wp-cont...ernetroyer.jpg ). It'd be nice if lalafells had a muscle tone slider like the other races, though.

Maybe I've just been so traumatized by the Elin from Tera and all of the people who perved all over them that lalafells don't even register for me. Do people see them as children, even with facial/gray hair? Is that a thing?

They might not be sexualized, but they're by far the most perverse. They're definitely the most promiscuous race we've been presented with.

Coming from my server and fanart lol, I think Female Miqote's are the most perverse...
No one gives a damn about Lala's lol.

Players and the fanbase aside, there's far more Lalafel NPCs with sexual overtones than other races.

Actually Miqote's are the ones that are constantly presented as the more promiscuous of all the races, looks at all the NPC dancers/sexual workers/etc.. 90% of them are Miqote's. And while some Lalas do have some sexual overtone lines as NPC and such, they don't come close as to how many Miqo's I've seen with this behaviour too, but that's just nitpicking.

They are supposed to be adults anyway so I don't really mind, does it comes as weird and creepy when a Lala denotes some sexual interest? Sure, but I just brush it off and keep playing. and we are going waaaay off-topic.

I still want Vieras on the game! I hope they at least give us some glimpse of them if they plan to add them later on with the next exp.

From memory there's the one group of dancers in the Ruby Road exchange, those twins that were taken in by that captain who dresses in the weird outfits, one in the spring that propositions you, the two selling themselves near the Limsa Lominsa docks and I'm sure there's a couple others, but that's all that's coming to mind right now.

Lalafel have one having a wet dream about Rauban in Camp Drybone, Momodi, there's two propositioning a hyuran woman but for the life of me I cannot remember where. There's also Gegeruju. By god is there Gegeruju. He should count as 10 NPCs because there's no one who comes anywhere near his level of hedonism. Men, women, human, beasttribe, all the same to him it seems. Maybe Miqo'te outnumber the Lalafel, but it's definitely not 90% and they're certainly not the most explicit.
