    You need to look only at various (high) Fantasy F2P mmo's to see which audience the most stuff will get.
    Dunno what you mean. Depending on the region, as many male chars are played as female, if not more. The proportions don't vary greatly enough for this excuse to fly.

    And given the galleries of some glamour websites there's a defining trend towards the female characters which the players are more willing to invest in, for fashion reasons, than their counterpart.
    If you provide more and better female glamours, a self-fulfilling prophesy will arise where people playing females invest more in their glamours. This isn't due to the business sense of it, it is due to what players find available to them as a result of the business's decisions. You've made a circular argument, and that's about it.

    It's already bad enough that some of the gear on this shop (e.g. the noble outfits) outstrips the dropped gear in instances, in a rather pricy sub-based MMO.

    Also, on an unrelated note, I find it funny that Lyse's only redeeming traits in her bland performance is her outfit, and this one isn't even particularly great.
