Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

I think we all can agree on a point that small body type != creep. Else many games which involve small male's would be considered weird and in a sense, should actually put off people. But it doesnt.
Here some examples:

Kingdom Hearts 3 Sora:

NieR: Automata 9s:

and especially Blade and Soul, male Lyn:

People are exaggerating with that. While I am also against anything shota-loli related, those requests can be misinterpreted. Anything child-sized is already covered by popoto's, everything else I'd consider a young teenager - best example in FFXIV Alphinaud.

I agree with that.
Sora, 9S and Lyn are very popular among gamers, and especially the female crowd.
Alphinaud is practically the canon age and has the physique of a typical shounen protagonist. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
So I don't blame people for wanting a short bishie. Personally, I'd prefer their height to fit with the females and then for there to be a slider that goes downward but nothing more than a head shorter.

Can you slap these characters in questionable clothing and then engage with innuendo with them? Or do all of the above during RP that some folks are subjected to? That's the issue some folks have, I believe. I honestly have no desire to take part in that, but it will happen. It happens with the lala's it will happen with any other race - it's still bad. But I agree with you if there's going to be more dimorphism then how you described it is something I can be happy with.

Bah, I don't understand why folks want dimorphism when instead they should be asking for an update in the character creator in regards to height scales for all races. Sexual dimorphism sucks, it sticks people into a certain body type that in some regards doesn't suit the character at all. We should be asking for more options in the creator not to shoehorn people into a specific body type. Or that the females/males should have the same height ranges - just have the scale be a little vaster.

I hope it's the first that race where both genders match in height and the two of them basically have the same height ranges - where the average height for both is the same.

Also, the au'ra dimorphism is idiotic and should not be repeated. Like yeah, it's not that the females are stupidly small - it's the fact the males are so very very tall.
