I simply just don't care to play a feminine male race.
1) Some players clearly want more "cute male" options, and I'd say ffxiv is severly lacking in that department (just like there's very little choice when it comes to tall and fierce looking female races);

2) Male viera would probably be tall and fierce anyway, so not sure where your rant is coming from.

Again, lore is not a justification for anything in ffxiv world. Most jobs should be pretty rare anyway. There should be only 1 DRG, 1 BLM, 1 WHM ecc. according to the lore. And lore can easily be changed by the devs to allow for the possibility of having more gameplay options. In this particular case, they can even come up with something as bold as "the woods told the viera (both male and female) to take up arms and defend their land".
