    I mean, technically speaking, isn't:



    Kind of the same as "rlly, feminine *basically any melee* would so stupid.."

    Are you boycotting Dancer?

    I for one, will happily be rocking my Astrologian dress as a Hrothgar.
    mele femine jobs are a thing just not with heavy weapons.

    for example Archer,gun <mech> and dancer

    Also Rogue.
    lancer is between femine and ya.

    the non Femine jobs are pally,warrior,drk,monk,sam


    which is why we need more axes, hammer and heavy themed weapons

    Your ability to conflate your subjective opinion with objective fact is only matched by your mastery of (the butchery of) the English language.

    The only actual melee job you list as feminine is Rogue. While you're entitled to your opinion I would point out that classically feminine poses tend to uniformly hold some semblance of good posture; something rogues and ninjas certainly show none of outside of the times that they're executing ninki. They tend to be hunched forwards and towards their enemy in an aggressive stance, this is clearly masculine if we're going to be stereotyping.

    If you'd like to see a feminine pose look at a WHM casting Stone IV, a RDM using Displacement or an AST doing... well, basically anything at all.

    I don't see why any of this actually matters to the game but what you're saying is just... it may be right in your head but that doesn't make it true. Recognize that you have an opinion and so does everyone else and just like butts just because we all have them doesn't mean we need to shove them in each other's faces.
