    Well, aside from the language barrier there's also a lot of cultural differences to consider. My own priority is in the form of more masculine looking glamour and hairstyle options for male characters. It always has been. Time and time again it has been proven that 'unisex' is double speak for feminine/androgynous aesthetics. So whilst people cheer on the victory over the bunny outfit being unlocked for men there's still the unfortunate fact that this could end up as a trend where more and more gear is designed with female characters in mind and then unlocked for men too only for those of us who want masculine gear/hairstyles to be left getting little more than scraps.

    I feel like it’s more that, if you think of it as a continuum of masculine-unisex-feminine and you’re wanting masculine style then the unisex things are inherently “more feminine” than things on the masculine end of the spectrum - but that doesn’t mean they are still feminine when compared to the actual feminine end of the scale.

    Perhaps the imbalance is more in the fact that “what women normally wear” spreads further past the middle of the scale than “what men normally wear”.
